In an environment where growth can no longer be taken for granted, value creation has become a central pillar of successful deals. As a result, leading investors are shifting the focus of commercial due diligence from assessing management’s business plan to identifying and actively unlocking additional growth opportunities beyond management’s plans.
During this roundtable, we will bring together deal professionals to discuss how the role and scope of commercial due diligence are evolving and how commercial excellence can contribute to tangible value creation. Together with Joost Heeremans (Rivean Capital), Thomas Slijpen (Armira), and Maarten Vaessen (Gilde), who will share their practical experiences, we will explore how traditional frameworks can be surpassed and how go-to-market strategies, sales force excellence, and pricing can be leveraged to create an early foundation for post-deal value maximization already during the deal process.
Together with a select group of peers, you will gain practical insights into how leading private equity firms approach value creation today, both before and after the deal.

This roundtable is intended for decision-makers in private equity and M&A advisors.
