What's new in 2025 agenda?

The 2025 agenda is focused on pragmatic strategies for executing and managing deals in a high-interest-rate environment, amid investor transformation and increased state oversight.

Rather than abstract trends, the program emphasizes practical tools, real-life case studies, and proven deal-making mechanics.


  • The New Logic of M&A: Deals are no longer just about growth — they’re about adaptation, protection, and reconfiguring ownership structures. We’ll explore how investors are closing transactions amid liquidity shortages and shifting risk appetites.

  • The 2026 Investor Mindset: Who’s still active in the market — and how have they changed? Panel discussions will reveal how asset valuation approaches are evolving and why "price" is no longer the primary factor in deal-making.

  • Distressed and Overleveraged Assets: For the first time, distressed M&A takes center stage — acquiring debt-burdened companies, engaging with banks, and leveraging government-backed restructuring support.

  • Emerging Deal Structures: Earn-outs, options, deferred payments, two-stage closings, SPV frameworks — we’ll go beyond theory with in-depth analysis of real working structures.

  • Regulation & the Sub-Commission: A special workshop on cross-border and foreign asset transactions under the 2026 regulatory regime — from valuation to approvals and documentation.

  • Integration as a Survival Strategy: Post-M&A integration is no longer optional. Digital transformation, talent retention, legal consolidation, and synergy execution will be explored as core elements of sustainable value creation.
