The deal-making environment has been quiet across industries, with telecom and media companies favoring a more innovative and defensive approach to deals, with less conventional partnerships on the cards. Hear the thoughts of senior industry deal-makers on how they are adapting to and taking advantage of changing circumstances and their views on recent deals and the potential for a revival in the M&A environment.
On February 9th Argyle Executive Forum presents its 2010 Deal Making in Media & Telecom event taking place in Manhattan. The event brings together an exclusive group of 100–115 senior executives focused on strategy, corporate development and M&A, as well as founders and managing partners, of leading large cap and mid cap telecom and media companies. Select CEOs, Board members, and investment officers from the endowment, foundation, and pension fund community will also be present.
Please note that seating for members of the advisory community is offered first to those that are supporting the event as sponsors. This event is by invitation only, and an invitation code is required. If you did not receive an invitation but would like to inquire about attendance, please click here.
