What do buyers and sellers need from each other during periods of M&A activity
Jinfo Community
1st November 2017
Description
In an age of high vendor M&A activity, there are steps both buyers and sellers can take during contract negotiations to alleviate the extra stress. This session will bring buyers and sellers together to discuss ways that both parties can approach the table in a situation where:
The information supplier...
- Has merged with another company and is combining services
- Has purchased another company and is offering new services
OR the information buyer...
- Has merged with another company and has new service needs
- Has been purchased by another company and contracts will be combined.
Join this interactive Community session to discuss how your peers and colleagues on both sides of the table are:
- Minimising company risk
- Making resource transitions smoother for staff and users
- Easing the stress of contract negotiations.
Whether you are an information buyer trying to navigate the abundance of vendor merger & acquisition activity or a vendor trying to provide top-notch customer service to your information service teams during a tricky merger situation, this Community session is for you.
