Suddenly, private investors are interested again. Funny how that happens. Let’s be fair. Sharing traffic risk may be exactly the right decision. Traffic is...
Financial close. Champagne. Photographs. Congratulations. A few speeches about partnership, collaboration and the exciting journey ahead. This phase… and the consequent hangover… normally lasts a couple of weeks. Then you wake up and realise that you have something the size of the Titanic to deliver. And you may have been procrastinating… and drinking and eating too much. You suddenly remember: The document management plan must be submitted within 10 Business Days of Financial Close....
