Acquiring privately-owned and early-stage companies presents unique challenges for corporate issuers. This session explores how equity compensation strategies can help navigate these transactions, retain key talent, and align diverse management goals.
From competing with private equity firms for founder-led businesses to integrating teams with differing cultural norms, attendees will gain practical insights and examples of how tailored equity plans ensure competitive and effective outcomes.

KEY LEARNING POINTS:

• Collaborate on how to structure equity offers that compete with private equity’s leveraged investment plans.
• Share strategies for retaining management post-acquisition and navigating transitions after private equity plans are settled.
• Discuss how equity compensation can help align cultures and behaviors, fostering synergy across teams in post-acquisition environments.
