Course Description

INTRODUCTION

This training course on Evaluating Collaborative Development Opportunities is concerned with one of the most important activities in the development of business – critical analysis and evaluation of potential investors and partners.  All businesses are becoming more complex in structure, technology, competition and strategic choice.  Consequently a company’s relationships with potential investors and partners now require a significantly higher standard of appraisal and focus than has been the case in the past. 

This high-level 5-day training course will concentrate on the application of leading-edge tools and techniques of due diligence in evaluating opportunities for creating effective relationships with these two strategically significant stakeholder categories.

Due diligence is multi-dimensional.  It is based on an understanding of needs and objectives of potential investors and partners; their decision criteria; their compatibility with the strategic and operational objectives of our own company; and finally it requires a structured process by which attraction and integration of new investors and partners can be accomplished effectively in order to sustain continuous improvement in the profitable growth of the company.

This GLOMACS  Evaluating Collaborative Development Opportunities training course will highlight the following key topics:

  • The changing dynamics of global business
  • Due diligence in financial appraisal of potential investors and partners
  • Due diligence in non-financial appraisal of potential investors and partners
  • The specific risks and rewards of development by alliances and joint ventures
  • Integrating collaborative relationships into your business strategy

Objectives

At the end of this GLOMACS training course on Evaluating Collaborative Development Opportunities, you will learn how to:

  • Identify the required characteristics of new investors and partners
  • Evaluate the past performance and future potential of new investors and partners
  • Select and engage with new investors and partners
  • Anticipate and deal with the challenges of integrating new investors and partners
  • Measure the strategic impact of adding the new relationships

Training Methodology

The training process is based on a carefully planned combination of highly focused inputs by the training seminar leader, using a balanced set of state-of-the-art presentation mechanisms.  The emphasis will be on learning by examining major decisions in which the use of best practice principles of due diligence has been critical.  Above all, the principles and approaches to this subject will be illustrated by reference to real-life organisations with which the seminar leader has been personally involved. In addition, delegates will be encouraged to introduce issues for open discussion and creative thought.

Specifically, we will use the following training methods:

  • Presentations by the course leader on tools and techniques of due diligence
