puzzle piece

Channels of distribution, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, buy/sell acquisitions.  Today, they are the rule not the exception for companies that are charging hard to grow dramatically.

 

But over 70% of alliances like these fail to achieve their goals.  Why?

 

If you are a company contemplating these paths to growth, attend the Entrepreneurs' Forum September 20th event to learn how to create, manage and measure alliances successfully.  Learn about the challenges and opportunities in alliances with large companies.  Hear how to position your company for potential acquisition by a partner.  Gain insight from companies that have walked this path successfully.

 

Attendees will leave with practical recommendations to implement immediately and an Entrepreneurs' Forum guide of best practices and resources to set you on your path to strategic growth through alliances.
