Introduction
To enable the next wave of growth, technology companies should rededicate their efforts to improve transparency, agility, collaboration, sustainability, and digital innovation. The valuation of such businesses has been highly controversial and is an important feature of this course.
Valuing technology businesses is challenging, not least because they include start-ups and early-stage operations, through to those that are more mature and at a later stage in the financing lifecycle. The valuation issues throughout the financing lifecycle share many similarities but also exhibit many differences.
This course seeks to address these differences. The programme provides a thorough review of the practical valuation of technology businesses and is filled with practical examples to illustrate the valuation techniques and associated problems.
