Merger and acquisition activity in the A/E space is approaching pre-recession levels and won’t be slowing down any time soon!  For those firm leaders pursuing growth through acquisition, there are opportunities that will yield swift and sustainable growth.  On the selling side of the transaction, firm leaders can unlock the keys to succession planning, getting to that elusive ‘next level’, or other strategic objectives through the right acquisition.  Whether you have a number of deals under your belt or are just taking the initial steps to get informed on the world of mergers and acquisitions and what to expect, this webinar is designed for you!

Busy A/E firm leaders are invited to join us as PSMJ M&A Consultant Gregory Hart shares valuable insight on today’s M&A marketplace, how transactions are coming together, and how to avoid some of the most common pitfalls.  Specific points of discussion and questions that will be answered include:
