‘Is PE for me?’ UHY's latest Inside Track Corporate Finance Event

9 October 2019

Our Corporate Finance team debunks myths about private equity deals in its latest event for business leaders.

The second of our Inside Track events, 'Is PE for me?' took place on Friday 20 September in Spinningfields, featuring four leading industry experts.

As well as giving insights from the PE investors’ perspective, the seminar covered what it’s like to be part of the management team going through a transaction, and beyond.

James Bracewell, COO of Manchester-based pet foods business MPM products, talked about his experience leading a £50m management buyout. Telling it straight, he gave valuable insights about the reality of living with – and through – a private equity deal.

He was joined by Daniel Freed, partner at YFM Equity Partners and Fiona McKay, managing director at Lightbulb Leadership Solutions.

The event was hosted by Adnan Sajid, a leading corporate finance partner at UHY Hacker Young, who specialises in M&A lead advisory work; helping entrepreneurs, corporates and private equity investors in a number of sectors.
