Tech Mergers and Acquisitions
Past Offerings
Tech Mergers and Acquisitions (1097): This course is an introduction to the law and practice of mergers and acquisitions with a focus on the technology sector. The technology sector continues to be one of the most active areas for the practice of mergers and acquisitions around the world, ranging from small acquisitions of start-ups to some of the largest, most high-profile and complex domestic and cross-border transactions each year. The course will provide students with a practical overview of M&A transactions and, although we will focus on key issues and complexities associated with transactions in the technology sector, the principles and practices discussed will be broadly applicable to M&A generally. The course will include several case studies of actual transactions, and also features guest speakers involved in relevant transactions. While the course will be taught as a part of the Global Quarter, it is open to all students and is not limited to students enrolled in the Global Quarter. Students will be evaluated based on attendance, class participation and a final exam. Prerequisite: Corporations, except on petition to the instructors.
