Small Exits | M&A Creativity in a Volatile Environment
— OVERVIEW —
Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and DMM Advisory (DMM) are partnering to present Small Exits, an insightful event designed to help founders, investors and executive leaders in small to mid-sized tech and tech-enabled businesses achieve successful mergers and acquisitions. With a shared focus on guiding companies through complex transactions, SVB and DMM will bring Lindsay Sharma, MD at Industry Ventures, and Jake Fuentes (2X Exited Founder and M&A Advisor to Startups) together to offer actionable strategies and real-world perspectives from both an investor and operator perspective.
