Join our Retail & Consumer Private Equity webinar on October 14 at 12:00 PM ET.
​
What makes a retail or branded consumer company attractive to private equity? What separates the investments that deliver strong returns from those that disappoint—and what do experienced investors change after they acquire a business?

Retail Marketing Society brings together leaders from three consumer-focused investment firms for a candid discussion of the market, investment criteria and value creation. Richard Baum of Consumer Growth Partners, Billy Logan of KarpReilly and Howard Steyn of L Catterton will join moderator Richard Kestenbaum of Triangle Capital to examine what investors look for, what they avoid and what sellers should understand before entering a process.
 
The conversation will cover:
• The current market for retail and consumer investments
• The company characteristics, channels and metrics that matter most
• How investors assess brand strength and consumer loyalty
• What successful and unsuccessful deals tend to have in common
• How private equity works with management after an acquisition
• Why sellers choose private equity and the mistakes they should avoid
 
Register for a practical, inside view of how experienced consumer investors make decisions and create value.
