M&A

More than half of the value of an acquisition is realized only after the deal closes. Yet the focus often remains heavily on the transaction process itself. How do you create value before the deal, and more importantly, how do you capitalize on that value afterward? During our Gamechangerz event on M&A, experts and industry practitioners will share their insights, experiences, and lessons learned from the field.

Value creation begins where the deal ends

Find out which factors determine whether an acquisition actually leads to growth, synergy, and returns.

A company acquisition is just the beginning. But how do you ensure that the intended value is actually realized?

On Wednesday, October 7, 2026, Gwynt, in collaboration with Navitas Capital, Aeternus, and Hai, will host an exclusive Gamechangerz event for executives, entrepreneurs, and investors. During this interactive afternoon, we’ll take participants through the entire acquisition process: from strategic ambitions and target selection to deal structuring, integration, and sustainable value creation.

Although a great deal of attention is focused on closing the deal, in practice it turns out that the biggest challenges—and opportunities—arise right after the acquisition. How do you prevent value from being lost? Which decisions make the difference between a successful integration and a difficult process? And how do you ensure that strategy, people, and processes truly come together?

An inspiring afternoon for decision-makers who want to look beyond the deal and build sustainable value creation.
