Synopsis

My name is Corey Kupfer and I’ve been working in the business of negotiations for more than 30 years, both as a successful entrepreneur and as an attorney. My goal is to help you strategize, plan for, find, and complete deals that will help your company grow rapidly. This is called “inorganic growth”, and it differs from the traditional, often slower, organic growth you’re probably familiar with.What You Will Learn:Learn why Gannett elected to acquire search marketing software maker WordStream for $150 million, and what benefits Gannett expects to receive from the deal. I also review IBM’s 2018 acquisition of Red Hat for $33 billion, in an effort to expand and grow their open source capacity and cloud dominance.I examine Oracle’s acquisition of DataFox for an undisclosed value, with the intention of increasing their capacity for Artificial Intelligence to analyze business data. I also look at Twilio’s $2 billion acquisition of SendGrid to expand their cloud platform as an all-in platform for business growth.L
