Greg DellaFranco, a Senior Manager of Corporate Development at Deloitte Consulting, shares his knowledge on M&A in the private equity realm.
“We first have to acknowledge and appreciate that due diligence is going to be a disruption to their business, that the target will underestimate this disruption, or they will over-promise on what they can deliver and under-promise on the speed to which they can deliver the data.” - Greg DellaFranco
