Hosted by ATC M&A Partner Snowball Group’s Graeme Lawrence and featuring former ATC Vice-Chair and founder of Sandberg Translation Partners, Jesper Sandberg, the session offered an opportunity to hear directly from someone who has spent decades both evaluating acquisition opportunities and navigating his own succession journey.
