M&A Workshop: Negotiating Confidentiality

Join Sullivan & Cromwell for an interactive, two-hour workshop designed to help you sharpen your awareness of the work handled by M&A lawyers, while also developing your negotiating skills.

This workshop offers a practical introduction to confidentiality agreements, which are a feature of all M&A transactions. It considers enforceability, tailoring provisions to deal with different types of confidential information, and strategic considerations for both buyer and seller.

Attendees will analyse a sample confidentiality agreement from both the buyer’s and the seller’s perspective, identifying key negotiation points and suggested revisions. The workshop will be led by Jeremy Kutner (Robinson, 1999), a partner at Sullivan & Cromwell who advises on M&A, joint ventures and restructurings for leading global companies, sovereign wealth funds and family offices. Jeremy will also be joined by other lawyers and trainees from Sullivan & Cromwell.

After the workshop, attendees are invited to join S&C for drinks, canapés and networking at KIBOU Japanese Restaurant and Bar.

Numbers limited. Register by 16th October latest.
