Introduction

This training course on Evaluating Collaborative Development Opportunities is concerned with one of the most important activities in the development of business – critical analysis and evaluation of potential investors and partners.  All businesses are becoming more complex in structure, technology, competition and strategic choice.  Consequently a company’s relationships with potential investors and partners now require a significantly higher standard of appraisal and focus than has been the case in the past. 

This high-level 5-day training course will concentrate on the application of leading-edge tools and techniques of due diligence in evaluating opportunities for creating effective relationships with these two strategically significant stakeholder categories.

Due diligence is multi-dimensional.  It is based on an understanding of needs and objectives of potential investors and partners, their decision criteria, their compatibility with the strategic and operational objectives of our own company, and finally it requires a structured process by which attraction and integration of new investors and partners can be accomplished effectively in order to sustain continuous improvement in the profitable growth of the company.

This GLOMACS  Evaluating Collaborative Development Opportunities training course will highlight the following key topics:

  • The changing dynamics of global business
  • Due diligence in financial appraisal of potential investors and partners
  • Due diligence in non-financial appraisal of potential investors and partners
  • The specific risks and rewards of development by alliances and joint ventures
  • Integrating collaborative relationships into your business strategy
