Buy, then Grow: How ETA revolutionizes Entrepreneurship around the world
Hybrid event: attend face-to-face in Porto alegre or connect online from anywhere around the world
Last month, South Summit brought to Brazil innumerous debates around Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Thank you for joining us! Now, we bring a provocative global trend to keep exploring the world of Entrepreneurship and Innovation with you.
Have you ever thought about acquiring a great business and growing it in your way instead of starting one from scratch? More than 90% of Startups fail whereas more than 90% of Entrepreneurial Acquisitions succeed. What are the differences between these two entrepreneurial paths?
Spain has become one of the main centers of Entrepreneurship through Acquisition (ETA) in the world. Europe and Latin America are the next frontiers. How did this happen? What is the role of top international universities such as Stanford, Harvard and IE behind this phenomenon? How can you also be part of this innovative way of owning and growing a business in Brazil or abroad?
IE University brings together two of the world's leading experts in Entrepreneurship through Acquisition for a HYBRID INTERACTIVE DEBATE.
The event can be attended Face-to-face in a comfortable venue in Porto Alegre (Brazil), with snacks, gifts and networking possibilities. It can also be attended Online, connecting from any place in Latin America through the IE Liquid Learning methodology, an interactive format that allows experts from around the world to participate in our classes.
