Know Your Value at All Times, Says Nine Technology

At this spring’s MSPWorld conference and exposition, collocated with ITEXPO, attendees will have the opportunity to discuss major channel business concerns with industry leaders. The lessons and tips gained from the conference will offer a leg up to attendees in facing those issues in the coming year. One particular facet of operating a channel business, proper valuation of the business, will be discussed at a session on the first day of presentations.

At this session, which will be conducted by MSPAlliance CEO Charles Weaver, participants will be warned of the dangers of waiting until a merger or acquisition to conduct a business valuation. Nine Technology President Gene Fay will join Weaver at the event to add his perspective about the proper time and methodology for estimating a channel business’ worth through a case study of Nine Technology’s recent sale of certain assets to Imation Corp.

Attendees to the session will walk away with a greater appreciation for the usefulness of a constantly-updated valuation of their business. Fay has participated in several mergers and acquisitions in his career, and will provide a unique perspective on the steps business owners should take when approaching the exciting and challenging prospect of a merger or acquisition.

The business valuation session is Tuesday, February 1^st at 2:30 p.m.
