๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Save the New Date: The State of Tech M&A in 2025

Foley & Lardner LLP joins us as a partner and host for this exclusive by-invitation event, co-hosted with Bernstein Private Wealth Management

Dear Friend,

After years of exit market contraction, the doors are finally beginning to reopen for tech founders. Join Mavka Capital, Bernstein Private Wealth Management, and Foley & Lardner LLP for an exclusive CEO-focused summit designed specifically for founders planning their startup exit in the next 24 months. Despite promising signs, today's exit environment still presents significant challenges โ€“ from geopolitical uncertainties to evolving valuation metrics and investor selectivity.

This intimate gathering will provide actionable insights to help you navigate what will likely be the most significant financial event of your career. You'll gain critical perspectives on the current valuations for tech companies, prepare for rigorous due diligence processes, and develop personal wealth strategies to maximize your post-exit financial position. Connect with fellow founders who share your exit timeline and learn from industry experts who understand both the technical and emotional aspects of successfully transitioning your company.
