The Denver skyline at night

An invitation-only evening for founders and CEOs of technology companies

M&A in Motion in Denver

What Colorado founders should be doing in the next twelve months — AI's effect on valuations, the tax traps nobody flags early, and how to be worth more without working longer

Date to be announcedDenver

Details being finalised — dates and venue to follow

Most of the decisions that determine what a company sells for get made two years before anyone calls a banker. This is a conversation about those decisions — an investment banker, a technology M&A lawyer and a tax partner, taking real questions.

What we will cover

  • What actually transacted in Colorado technology over the last 18 months — deal counts, sectors, and who the buyers were
  • What AI is really doing to valuations, as distinct from what the market says it's doing
  • What surfaces in diligence and should have been fixed years earlier — IP assignment, cap table, contracts
  • The tax structures with an expiry date — the ones that stop being available once a process starts

Agenda

Indicative running order. Times are relative and will be fixed once the date is confirmed.
