The implementation of the strategic understandings that emerge from the initial screening may occasionally take up to several years. The process requires early identification of gaps and issues, careful planning and diligent execution. Occasionally our partners individually also provide board advisory services. Typically these services encompass regular sessions – once or several times per year – with the management team and the board of the company to review progress of the company, trends and M&A transactions in the industry and developments in capital markets. These sessions may span several years until the company is ready for a merger or acquisition, or a capital raise. See the time line below.
