Presentation materials for the talk: Presentation Slides
Abstract
We often hear of and talk about getting entities and companies together that have synergy in many areas to form a stronger company, but most mergers and acquisitions fail despite the supposed synergy. The challenge lies in execution. Many issues and aspects have to be taken into consideration. Many of these issues will stop the deal going through. It takes the extra step and willingness for all concerned to really see the larger picture and share in the common future goal. In this talk, Mr. Ng shares his personal experience and insights in making M&A works in the case of ECS Holdings, a company which he co-founded and subsequently brought to IPO on SESDAQ.
