Integration Mastermind Sessions

A key element of learning about acquisition integration is discussion with experts in the field. Intista's Integration Mastermind sessions are held monthly. 

Mastermind Availability

Integration Mastermind sessions are offered monthly to subscribers of the Certified Acquisition Integration Manager program. They are held generally on the Third Tuesday of every month 

This mastermind group is a free-form discussion about best practices, techniques and problem solving, associated with M&A integration. We discuss topics that the attendees bring up, to help them prepare for the tasks ahead, or explore solutions to problems.


How to join us

All attendees must accept Intista's current terms and conditions
