Wilson Sonsini will sponsor the ACC-Austin webinar on “M&A Trends: SPACs and IP Issues in M&A Transactions.” Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) continue to show growth in 2021 and the de-SPAC process continues to provide private companies the opportunity to access public equity markets. Wilson Sonsini will provide an update on SPAC business combinations, including deal trends and new developments. The presentation will also include a discussion of key intellectual property and commercial contracts issues in M&A transactions. The topics covered will help in counsel prepare for future M& A transactions.
Wilson Sonsini partner Matt Lyons and Of Counsel Jennifer McGrew will present in this online-only event.
