-       The dangers of depending too much on someone else’s ecosystem – and how to mitigate them

-       The importance of timing in acquisition – and how one founder was able to 20x their exit outcome by planning this well

-       How to manage the 3 different types of exit scenarios

-       Why bringing an experienced M&A team to the table can make a deal go much smoother

-       How to make sure time works for you and not against you in any deal process
