SUMMARY:SUSTAINABILITY FOCUS  Growing importance of ESG for private compa
 ny investors’ M&A and investment strategies
DESCRIPTION:SustainabilityFocusHumanRightsThere has been significant cove
 rage on how public companies are dealing with the increased focus on ESG
  and investor expectations and demands around ESG initiatives.  But how 
 should private companies think about ESG as it relates to M&amp\;A\, in 
 particular around attracting investment capital from private investors. 
  How has ESG become a focal point of closely held businesses?  How do in
 vestors such as VC funds\, family offices and other private capital sour
 ces think about ESG as part of their investment thesis?  Do private comp
 anies need to think about ESG as part of their liquidity or exit strateg
 y?  This panel of industry leaders will review and discuss how ESG consi
 derations can give rise to success or failure in the M&amp\;A and invest
 ment context with respect to private companies.\n\nSUSTAINABILITY FOCUS 
 sessions marked as such are part of the IBA Annual Conference 2022 susta
 inability focus on Tuesday and Thursday\, grouping sessions discussing d
 ifferent aspects of ESG and sustainability across the different legal fi
 elds.\n
