It is hard to imagine that a middle market advisor could now claim to a client, in good faith, that they had conducted an effective auction for their client’s business without considering and courting a sale to an international buyer.

Grand Rapids, MI (Vocus/PRWEB) November 29, 2010

The Alliance of Merger & Acquisition Advisors (AM&AA) and the International Society of Primerus Law Firms (Primerus) are pleased to announce the 3rd Global M&A Symposium scheduled May 10-12, 2011 in London England.

At an economically challenging time for all of us, this major international symposium offers a forum for global M&A professionals to hear from industry leaders and experts on the key issues of the day, network with deal makers from the major European and global financial centres, and create new friendships. The event will focus on the issues of international deal making in the middle market. We anticipate 150 senior level investment bankers, lenders, private equity investors, CPA’s, attorneys, personal financial planners, venture capitalists, business consultants, and corporate M & A professionals, from all over the world, to attend this event.

According to Michael Nall, AM&AA Founder, “Everyday our members are becoming more involved in global transactions and we must provide the forum they need to more easily access the people, ideas, and capital sources for this expanding international marketplace.”
