The M&A Moment is an insider's guide to the world of business mergers and acquisitions. Each episode is an examination of the strategy, structure and valuations behind multi-billion dollar corporate deals. We look at the buyer or acquirers motivation for acquiring a company whether it be for strategic or financial reasons. We also look at the target or sellers strategy for choosing a buyout as their exit strategy. From friendly mergers to hostile takeovers, from leveraged buy-outs to cash and stock deals, we cover it all so that you can understand the legal, financial and business rational behind this important business practice. The M and A Moment stars Donald Landwirth, host of Bay Area Ventures on SiriusXMs Business Radio Powered by the Wharton School. Donald is a serial entrepreneur, Silicon Valley veteran and expert in the San Francisco Bay Area way of business. He is joined by Richard Climan, Partner at the law firm of Weil, Gotshal and Manges, LLP. Rick is one of the top M&A Attorneys in the world, having been the lead attorney for hundreds of multi-billion dollar M&A transactions. He is also the former head the American Bar Associations M&A Committee and routinely teaches mergers and acquisition negotiations and law for the ABA and at some of the top law schools in the world.

0009 May 2017 - Rick Climan and team move to Hogan Lovells
Wednesday, 24 May, 2017
In this episode of The M&A Moment I talk with Rick Climan about moving himself and his entire world-class M&A team to the Hogan Lovells, LLP law firm. This is a major shakeup in the mergers and acquisitions world as it brings an even broader set of resources to his already formidable practice. Rick is involved in some of the largest tech mergers and acquisitions in the world and with the growing number of multi-national mega mergers Rick will be better positioned and better supported to capture this growing opportunity. Rick and I discuss the recent opening of the tech IPO market and whether or not that will have a meaningful impact on M&A deal flow. Finally, we take look at recent developments in the $5 Billion Broadcom/Brocade merger. We look at some recently announced divestitures from Brocade that will be contingent on the Broadcom merger gaining FTC approval and what might be the strategic reason for announcing them at this time. This episode was recorded during my Bay Area Ventures show on SiriusXM Channel 111 Business Radio Powered by the Wharton School on May 22, 2017.
