Program produced by XPX New Jersey.
When SPACs Attack
The New Jersey chapter is excited to continue our programming year with another thoughtful and insightful meeting. Our chapter is growing and welcoming professional advisors who help business owners plan for a successful exit. As we continue to examine many of the different planning considerations and decisions an owner needs to face, our members participate in this interactive discussion. We welcome your attendance at our next meeting.
Not a week goes by without another announcement about new SPAC’s (Special Purpose Acquisition Companies), ranging from those focused on initial launch to IPO to portfolio acquisitions. It is happening and happening very fast. What opportunity is presented to the business owner that was not available before? How can owners and their advisors participate in this market entry position and how do they really work? Finally, what are the pitfalls to the SPAC euphoria?
At this month’s discussion we will hear insight from Sean Denham, Partner from Grant Thornton. Sean is the National Special Acquisition Company Leader for Grant Thornton. Locally, Sean is the Office Managing Partner (OMP) for Grant Thornton’s Philadelphia office. As OMP, Sean has the privilege of leading an exceptional team of high-performing individuals in the Philadelphia region who provide top tier accounting, advisory and tax services for our clients. As an audit partner of the firm, Sean serves some of Grant Thornton’s most prominent clients including public and private companies in the professional services industries.
This highly interactive session will allow for participation by attendees in a collaborative format. As an association of experienced advisory professionals for business owners and their companies, we are all focused on delivering the highest level of subject matter expertise to our clients and we would value your expertise and insights.
