Due Diligence - the Process from Start to Finish

Due diligence is the critical process during which buyers or major investors can avoid costly mistakes in international business transactions. It can also confirm the logic for the transaction and can be used to start planning integration and project management.

This two-day conference has been designed to take you through every step of the procedure in a straightforward and practical manner. It will cover all of the fundamental issues including legal, commercial and financial due diligence, as well as other areas such as intellectual property and environmental due diligence which are often overlooked, at a great cost to the buyer.
