How to build your games business for sale and how to look after the proceeds when you do.

Audience: CEOs, Directors, CFOs

TIGA, in partnership with Connor Broadley, will be hosting a small round table event on 6th September 2019 for senior management working in games. This is a boardroom event and therefore places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.

As a games business finds success and grows, owners may start to think about the day when they could be in a position to sell. Landing a deal that’s right financially, right for the company and right for the people involved though, is a minefield of decision making.

How far ahead should the planning process start? When is the right moment to sell? Is there a danger of waiting too long? How do we market ourselves for sale? How do we know what price is too much or too little? How do we find the right kind of buyer for the company? How do we put the right exit strategies in place?

Knowing what buyers look for in key financial, cultural and performance indicators can make a real difference to a company’s attractiveness and is crucial in the long-term planning for a sale.

But selling in itself is not the only consideration.

The capital event from a company sale can provide the individuals involved with an opportunity to review not just their current personal finances, but also to seal long-term financial security for themselves, their family and any dependants.

TIGA will be working with wealth management company Connor Broadley and mergers and acquisition specialist SI Partners to help attendees unravel the answers to all of the above. Together they will give a talk on best practice on all of the above issues and also provide an opportunity for a questions and answers session.
