Creating Liquidity to Fuel Growth

Presented By: Cendrowski Corporate Advisors / Alex. Brown (A division of Raymond James)

Capital liquidity is your organization’s lifeblood. It’s essential for every business. In the context of deals, it means supplying sufficient capital to redeem shareholders and, at the same time, supplying capital and resources to supercharge growth. Sufficient capital is critical to the evolution of a changing, growing business. Join a group of veteran entrepreneurs, executives, and M&A professionals as they explore ways to provide capital liquidity and share lessons learned from successfully growing companies.
