Although I won't be able to attend, I believe that Fatima Almubbad's presentation is worth listening to. The Middle East has shown robust growth in areas such as fintech, e-commerce, and smart city initiatives. Governments across the region are prioritizing digital transformation as a core component of their economic strategies, which opens up unprecedented opportunities for businesses worldwide. For companies looking to expand their digital footprint, the Middle Eastern market offers a unique blend of challenges and opportunities. The region's diverse consumer base is eager for innovative digital solutions that cater to their cultural and practical needs. Additionally, the local startup ecosystem is vibrant and growing, supported by an influx of venture capital and a strong entrepreneurial spirit. Collaboration is key to success in this dynamic market. Partnering with local businesses can provide valuable insights into the regional nuances and help tailor digital solutions that resonate with local consumers. Moreover, such collaborations can pave the way for sustainable growth and mutual benefits. #tech #SME #SEA #MIDDLEEAST

Attended this Aalto Forum event, too. Was good. This story of a leader stating to a M&A consultant ”where were you 2 years ago” covering his eyes so as not to see the painful theory slide shown by the consultant! Must make a note that storytelling makes memories stick,.., 💡 Looking at the presented theory, this leader had just realized the reason why their two first M&A processes had gone south after the transaction. The first merged company they integrated, but drawing from an analyzed acquicition strategy, they should have left the company independent. With the second merger they had decided not to make that mistake the second time, and left the company independent, whereas they should have integrated tightly to gain what they executed the transaction for. 💡 And that is actually to the point with what the data was telling in another one of the presentations: The companies making more than 1 acquisition a year got significantly higher returns compared to the ones with less acquisitions over a period of 10 years.
