Navigating Uncharted Waters: Drive Strategic Growth with Capability-Building Acquisition

In 2022, M&A remains as relevant a driving force for executing strategy as ever. But M&A strategy has changed: the uncertainties of increasingly complex business, regulatory, and labor realities are encouraging organizations to acquire new products and capabilities to adapt and evolve. 

The 2022 Merger Integration Conference – Navigating Uncharted Waters: Drive Strategic Growth with Capability-Building Acquisition addresses targeted strategies so that companies can effectively drive transformation by successfully adding new capabilities.
