The Future of Deal Making Tools: Turning Big Data into Big Insight

Thursday, February 13, 2014 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EST

Register the webinar: http://bit.ly/1eV96Fq

What is Big Data and how do we harness it? It seems to be a hot topic of the moment, but few of us can define Big Data, much less understand how to apply it to doing deals.

But one thing is for sure - Big Data is not only changing how deals are originated, approached and completed - it also ultimately affects how operating companies perform.

From deal generation to due diligence and execution, it is clear that harnessing Big Data can provide private equity firms, their portfolio companies, and their limited partners with an edge in enhancing their levels of success.

To help us better understand Big Data and more importantly, the tools to harness it, Merrill DataSite is pleased to partner with Dealdrive™ (www.dealdrive.com) to bring together a group of seasoned technology and deal professionals who will lend their expert insight into this increasingly important aspect of private equity investing.

Webinar organizers are prohibited from soliciting confidential personal information (credit card information, social security numbers, etc.) in the registration form. This questionnaire is not intended to handle sensitive data.

This one-hour webinar will allow participants around the world to join the discussion and interact with experts.
