Investing In Success – Scaling up and successful business exits - PAST EVENT - BM Insights

Scaling up and successful business exits

There are a number of mistakes that come up time and time again when business owners look to sell or exit their business. Such mistakes can lead to a less than optimal exit, either undermining valuation, or leading to an extensive earn out period rather than a clean break.

In Blake Morgan’s Investing in Success webinar on 19 April, we were privileged to be joined by Debbie Wosskow OBE, one of the most recognised serial entrepreneurs in the UK, known for successfully launching and scaling businesses.

Debbie provided an insight in to how she has successfully managed multiple business ventures and also exits. Debbie highlighted how we can: design inclusive spaces that attract investment, appeal to female customers and ensure diversity in the workplace.
