Technology tends to be a key asset that drives cross-border deals involving both technology and non-technology focused businesses, particularly as different jurisdictions are innovating in various manners. However, complex regulatory, compliance, and technical challenges arise in these particular deals, including increased scrutiny around technology and conflicting M&A regulations across jurisdictions.

In this 60-minute webinar, panelists discussed the current cross-border M&A impacting the technology sector, the unique challenges that arise when conducting these deals across jurisdictions, and strategies for successfully executing on these deals to remain competitive in the current market.
