M&A is increasingly critical in the Internet of Things (IoT), Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Digital Industry market (i.e. the digitization and associated integration of digital technologies in the industrial sector) and is the primary way fast-followers who face disruption can react before they lose market share and profitability. 

However, identifying the right acquisition strategy in a rapidly changing market requires much more than choosing a company from a landscape diagram of logos. How does a company in energy, manufacturing, industrial, transportation or logistics find the right targets that leverages their “crown jewels” and their “opportunity to win”. Even with a crisp strategy, how do you identify value drivers and create a clear integration plan for success? 
 
This webinar will be moderated by Doug Harp, Managing Partner of Momenta Advisory in association with a panel of thought leaders and experts in Digital Industry M&A. This includes Stefan Hofmeyer, Partner, Global PMI Partners and from Momenta Partners, Bill O’Such, Principal Partner and Ben Tao, Partner.
 
In this webinar we’ll explore: 

·         M&A trends in IoT, IIoT and Digital Industry 
·        How can M&A ensure you aren’t left behind in a growing market and can leap-frog the competition? 
·         How do you tell the difference between a good and a bad M&A Strategy? 
·         Why conventional M&A via Investment Bankers won’t work at this stage of the market
·         How to identify the right targets in a dynamic and immature market
·         How to ensure success in an M&A transaction from discovery to Post-Deal optimization

How Do You Create Digital Industry Impact?

COVID-19 has inflicted unprecedented societal and economic shock as governments and health care systems respond tirelessly to the contagion. Global markets have experienced drastic downturns with trillions of dollars in capitalization being lost as the virus spreads.

Now is the time to prepare for the eventual new normal while extracting positive and actionable lessons from the crisis. Vast digital capabilities are at our disposal and these can keep the economy functioning. Amongst other things, digital enables crisis-proof operation automation and strong remote workforce capabilities.

But how exactly will our world look when COVID-19 abates? How will digitalization be impacted? We believe this crisis accentuates digital transformation’s importance and that efforts to develop, proliferate, and implement digital strategies will accelerate. In the coming months/years, digital will drastically reshape entire industries, rendering organizations better prepared for crises.

Crisis = Danger + Opportunity. In a time of great economic crisis, digital is the answer.

Join us for a special webinar wherein we discuss the global implications of COVID-19 and what enterprises can expect post-crisis. These key topics will be explored:

Assessing the crisis:
- What is the extent of disruption to different industries?
- Making sense of the market. 
- The impact on global supply chains.  

Responding and evolving:
- How will businesses adapt to increasingly remote work forces?
- What technologies will now emerge to address the risks of disruption to workforces?

From here on out:
- What will this crisis permanently change?
- What industries are better prepared and which need to catch up?
- How to capitalize on the new normal?

The Newest Normal: Crisis = Danger + Opportunity

With the explosion of Internet-connected devices that help us make sense of our world through data collection and analytics, we’re seeing a distributed model emerge with the rise of edge and mobile edge computing.  Edge computing platforms operate closer to the network edge, and closer to things and data sources, integrating the capabilities of networks, storage, and applications.    

This webinar takes a thoughtful and engaging look at the current state of fog and intelligent computing, with industry experts sharing real-life examples. It forecasts a future where edge-cloud hybrids or data hives are able to provide greater analytics and value-add to industry than ever before.

The Intelligent Edge: The Next Frontier of IoT Innovation

Digital Industry is fundamentally altering the dynamics of the industrial and infrastructure sectors. The rapid development of digital innovations – most notably the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud, and artificial intelligence (AI) – is radically redefining what is operationally possible while creating a great deal of organizational uncertainty and stress. Becoming defensive in the face of digital disruption will only delay the reckoning. The best strategy is to get ahead of the curve by creating a Digital Industry strategy that reflects the changes coming to your industry.

Join leading Digital Industry practitioners as they help you understand the latest digital innovations and what they mean for organizations in the energy, manufacturing, transportation, and infrastructure arenas.

Insights Partner Leif Eriksen will be moderating a roundtable discussion with other thought leaders including David Lafferty, President at Scientific Technical Services and Doug Harp, PE, Managing Partner at Momenta Partners.

2020 will be a pivotal year for Digital Industry and understanding what it means for you, your organization, and your industry is critical to success. 

Are you ready?
