Finding multiple paths to growth: the dual transaction strategy 

How do leading companies find new paths to grow their topline and stay ahead of the competition? A dual-track approach that includes both M&A and corporate venture building – leveraging competitive assets to create whole new business lines – can help companies turbocharge their growth. But how can business leaders best implement this dual-track strategy?

Our panel, which will include EY-Parthenon M&A professionals and corporate venture builders, will discuss transformational growth strategies, new market opportunities and ways to innovate through strategic M&A and corporate venture building.

Our panelists will discuss:
