M&A Dealmakers Roundtable: What to Expect in 2022

Presented By: Citizens

How are issues such as the supply chain, labor shortages, virtual offices, and the lingering effects of the global pandemic affecting dealmaking as we welcome a new year? Join a group of regional and national executives for an engaging and wide-ranging conversation on key deal trends for 2022. Among the topics this group will discuss are significant findings in Citizens’ annual Middle Market M&A Outlook, including how executives are faring in the ongoing war for talent, the impact of current supply chain issues on dealmaking, and whether the frenzied M&A market will stay hot.

Following a 40-minute panel discussion you will have the opportunity to meet the speakers and ask questions during a 20-minute video Q&A session.
