Overview
The M&A market has continued its busy pace, while macroeconomic trends and political considerations continue to create uncertainty. In addition to a robust volume of M&A deals, the market has also seen a number of hostile deals, creative deal structures, shareholder activist campaigns, and developments in Delaware M&A jurisprudence, including the first ever judicial finding of a “MAE.” These developments are among the points that will be discussed at the Doing Deals program.
