April, 25th 2024
On April 24, 2024, the first Vienna M&A Day took place under the scientific direction of Prof. Thomale in the historic premises of the "Haus der Industrie".
Over 20 leading figures in the field of M&A from academia and practice shared their many years of experience in eleven exciting specialist presentations. The pool of topics ranged from current market trends to detailed legal issues in corporate, insolvency and tax law (you can find the full program HERE) .
The launch of the new institution appears to have been a success: over 180 registrations and a lively exchange during and after the event speak for its necessity. Reason enough for the organizers to intend to continue this event next year. In this regard, the next generation in particular is invited to participate as speakers at the next conference and to apply to the organizers in this regard.
