Exit Right 2023
Exit Right – an expert-led events for entrepreneurs
Exit Right 2023 is a free expert-led, must-attend event series for any entrepreneur looking to drive their business from start-up to exit.
Following on from the successful 2022 Exit Right events, this year’s talks are from founders and directors who have successfully exited their businesses as well as M&A experts.
Founders will tell you first hand about their exit journey – what went well and what didn’t go quite so well. You will find out the best strategies to employ and what it takes to be one of the successful 10% of businesses that exit – whether it’s through an acquisition or IPO.
We also have M&A experts who will give you the inside track on what purchasers are really looking for when they are buying companies.
It is never too early to hear how others did it and to start planning an exit strategy for your start-up or SME.
The events are aimed at founders, directors and senior management of start-ups and SMEs. Each talk is 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.
For those who want to meet the speakers, events will be held at The Oxford Trust’s Wood Centre for Innovation in Headington (OX3 8SB). Each event will be followed by drinks and networking at the Centre. The event series starts on Thursday 25th May and will run every two weeks. Start time is 17.30 at the end of the working day. Events will also be livestreamed.
The series is sponsored by Marks & Clerk and organised in partnership with The Oxford Trust, Oxford Innovation Space and Barclays Eagle Labs, Oxford.
