Logisyn & Benesch Speak at TIA

Wrapped Up and Tied With a Bow - Packaging Your Logistics Company for the Marketplace

Benesch’s Eric Zalud and Logisyn’s Mark Para speak at TIA’s 2025 Capital Ideas Conference

One of the most tectonic decisions facing any brokerage operation is the decision to sell the business, or to acquire another business. This panel will zero in on that decision point from legal, practical and financial perspectives. The panel will discuss transactional aspects, private equity engagement and involvement, corporate structure and governance, due diligence for M&A transactions, and the legal aspects of integration thereafter. The panel will discuss all aspects - practical, strategic, legal, and economic - of those transactional components. The panel will provide insight on when the time is right -- or not right -- to make an acquisition, exit strategies, full blown combinations, and bolt-ons for focused growth. The panel will also explain the demands of integration post-merger, including protecting intellectual property, personnel issues, and strategies to protect cash flow and manage risk. The panel will also provide a walk-thru on due diligence processes and procedures for any acquisition, and provide corporate structure tips to minimize risk. The panel will include senior executives of motor carriers, along with M&A specialists. Hear from those who have actually made those decisions, along with guidance from experienced logistics counsel.
