Panel: Value Creation through Digital Transformation
According to research from Gartner, Iberian CIOs are lagging their European counterparts when it comes to digital transformation. However, consolidation in the tech space is actively generating advisory mandates for start-ups. 2022’s downturn in tech valuations means that investors have shifted their focus to EBITDA-positive companies exposed to digital transformation. This panel will review:
- How can Iberian financial sponsors apply digital transformation strategies to create value?
- What is the pipeline for deal mandates in the tech sector? Is consolidation driving activity?
- How can advisors adopt strategies for profitability that are EBITDA-friendly?
- How are public valuations affecting activity? Are any tech sub-sectors generating higher valuations?
