31st July: Back with a bang
Sell or accelerate – what’s your choice?
A two-strand event for business owners who have made an ambitious decision
This event is in two parts running back to back, each lasting 1.5 hours. Pick your stream – Sell or Accelerate:
- 9-10.30am: How to ready your company for a fast sale at max value with Chris Averill, who sold We Are Experience to Globant and has literally written the book on how to sell your agency.
- 10.45-12.15: How to accelerate fast using the 2Y3X Roadmap system with speakers from both client-side and 2Y3X.
Each event costs £50+VAT.
Both streams are specifically relevant to founders, CEOs, MDs and COOs of companies with at least 20 staff. This is an incredibly valuable event for leaders and those concerned with accelerating out of the current crisis at speed, driving up company value and exiting at a premium sale price.
“Everything was broken down masterfully into manageable sections by experts who had clearly done it all before and made that expertise incredibly accessible to all attending. I left with more ideas and strategies to try than I have in four years of running my agency. I would recommend it to anyone!”
Ben Askins, Managing Director, Verb Brands
