Optimizing Your Exit Opportunities (Members Only)

There is more than one path to success. Your company’s roadmap to success should be defined by what’s important to you. Is it creating a high profit margin? Is it bringing your product to the broadest market possible? Is it reaching a $200 million annual recurring revenue target? Defining what success means to you and your team — not what the media or investors say it is — will help you develop a growth strategy that will pave the way for a successful investment round or acquisition.

On March 20, join Mona Sabet — Managing Director of Tribal Advisor — for an in-depth workshop and engaging discussion on how to plan for a successful exit. We will discuss how this can impact your business strategy and growth, and enable you to optimize your exit opportunities.

You will learn:

• the valuation lifecycle of a startup
• how to start thinking about your exit options
• how preparing for an exit can help you build a better business

The workshop will be followed by Office Hours for members who would like to work with Mona.
