Amidst all the gloom of the Great Recession lie huge opportunities for Hawai`i businesses –whether they are thriving, struggling or somewhere in between. History has repeatedly shown that companies that take advantage of downturns to reorganize, consolidate and prepare themselves are the companies that end up with huge rewards in the inevitable recoveries. Whether its a strong competitor acquiring a weaker one to gain customers and market share, two struggling competitors merging to form a strong successor, a long-time owner selling a business to an ESOP or to new management, or even a distressed business reorganizing to prepare for the future, the opportunities are out there. Learn how to identify these opportunities, and more importantly, how to structure, finance, and orchestrate them so that in five years, YOU are the one whom everyone is asking “how did you do it!?”
