In our experience mid-sized companies find it difficult to attract private equity investors as they are unable to present their business plan in a format that is readily appreciated by a private equity investor.

Given the number of mid-sized companies seeking capital, private equity funds do not have the time or the bandwidth to look at each in detail. We believe that a platform like IPEF 2008 will be an ideal solution by getting together select investment ready companies with Private Equity investors who are keen to do the deal

Normally it takes anywhere from three to six months to close a private equity deal-if it closes at all. We believe that IPEF 2008 will dramatically fast track the entire process. We expect a significant number of successful deals as a result of this Fair.

Sunil Shirole Managing Director, YEN Expo himself a senior investment banker formerly with Deutsche Bank said: "In our experience mid-sized companies find it difficult to attract private equity investors as they are unable to present their business plan in a format that is readily appreciated by a private equity investor."
