Julius Černiauskas: It’s really important to have direct communication with the companies you are buying. Even for a good price, if you are not able to find a way with the people, consider again if you really need that. It is really important to have smooth communication. #Forum

Justinas Šukys: Here are the three GenAI imperatives for PE investors: seek out companies which have high GenAI ambition, but make sure you understand the barriers; start with GenAI for cost savings, then progress to revenue-centric initiatives; go broad before you go deep.

Monika Mališauskaite-Vaupšiene: With merger clearances, consider the unlikely „ifs“ 👆 A merger clearance is not merely a formal procedure.

[Baltic M&A and Private Equity Forum @Baltic_Forum]

Vytautas Sinius: During a merger, the soft part is very important. In the INVL-Siauliu, 96% of people of the total 160 decided to join the new organisation. It wasn’t our first merger, so we already had a culture of welcoming another team. We are like America, welcoming people.

Sigvards Dzelzkalejs: We need to build an investor base back home. We see many high-net-worth individuals whose money does not flow into equity investments. They could be the next family offices, the next LPs.

Deimante Korsakaite: Not following ESG has become as unacceptable as drunk driving.
Talking about the sectors we will be focusing on, defence is one, and this should be happening all over Europe.

Sigvards Dzelzkalejs: Geopolitical risk is the Nr 1 problem we are facing in the advisory business. The climate is less opportunistic now: the volume of the deals has decreased while the value has increased.

Elžbieta Lukenskaite: The M&A winter is coming to an end. The urgency element will be a real drive in disposing assets from portfolios. The most interesting deals usually take place in times like these.

✅Europe is making a self-inflicted mess stopping innovation and investments in sectors such as defence and health care.
✅There is a good reason to invest in defence also from ESG perspective, as without security, there can be no sustainability.
