The Market Spotlight Series is a series of conferences dedicated to reaching out to specific market segments with high-level education on similar topics to the Exit Strategies symposium series. These are done either in concert with an industry event as part of their educational offering or as a standalone webcast sponsored and supported by firms that work in that field.
A typical event will be for a specific market segment such as Security, RFID, ERP, etc., and will include brief presentations by an industry luminary, and supporting panels/presentation on IPOs, Investment, and M&A, by both specialists, as well as CEOs and CFOs from the companies making deal headlines in that market.
These webcasts run 60 to 90 minutes, are worldwide in scope, and are very specific to one distinct market segment. The sponsors, faculty, and speakers are therefore highly specialized in these markets, thus each event will have a different set of presenters with specific expertise and experience.

Strategic buyers spent ?? trillion on software and Internet M&A in the post-bubble boom. Some of those acquisitions have fueled growth, geographical expansion, and innovation. However, many acquisitions have fallen short of expectations, taken companies outside of their core focus, or drained resources from more promising lines of business. But remember – assets that don’t fit your strategy may have tremendous value to a strategic buyer or private equity investor with the resources and synergies to make them work.
