The panel will explore a number of key issues including legal, business, operations, administration, human resources, benefits, intellectual property, and financial issues. Board directors are essential to a smooth transaction as they can significantly assist the company in three major areas:
1. Sourcing the deal
2. Proving oversight on the due diligence process and guidance to prepare the company for the deal
3. Structuring the deal
Additional areas that will be covered:
• The valuation
• The timing
• The due diligence process

• The role of intellectual property
• The letter of intent
• The acquisition agreement provisions
• Sensitive issues such as employee and benefits issues
