Michael Moritz, president of Globalscope, commented: “We are very proud to extend Globalscope’s reach in two of the fastest growing economies in the world. This provides even more opportunities for all Globalscope clients worldwide.”
David Mahmood, Chairman/Founder of Allegiance Capital also sees great potential in the expanding Globalscope partnership. “The marketplace drives company values. Today that marketplace is worldwide, and to best serve our clients we need global access to effectively and efficiently sell companies. Globalscope provides us that capability. We are currently working on six deals with Globalscope members. The Globalscope member firms make it easy for us to work with international buyers because they eliminate the language and cultural barriers.”
The four day conference program was hosted by GKA Capital, Globalscope’s member in South Africa, and was attended by more than 40 partners from 23 of Globalscope’s 32 member firms. For the reception at the Radisson Blu Hotel, the members were joined by numerous selected Southern African entrepreneurs and investors.
Local experts, Willie Thabe of the Black Managers Forum, and Noah Greenhill of the leading niche South African Banking and Financial Services Group, SASFIN, provided insight into the opportunities and challenges in Southern Africa.
