Magazine, brining you the latest developments in the world of corporate finance. Diving straight into the world of news, leading and influential figure in the IT channel Ian Kilpatrick, EVP (Executive Vice-President) Cyber Security for Nuvias Group, predicts how IT security will change as the New Year draws in. In this month’s edition of Acquisition Intl. Magazine, we discover more about San Francisco, California-based law firm, O’Connor and Associates. The firm was established in 2006 and provides its clients with a tailored approach to complex business litigation. Recently, a spokesperson for the company took time to profile the principal of O’Connor and Associates, John O’Connor, revealing more about his exceptional success over the years. Also in this month’s issue, we invited independent and privately held impact investing and strategy firm, Impact Economy’s Investment Group Lead, Tobias Roederer to talk us through the techniques the firm employs to achieve their goal of making impact investible. Elsewhere in this edition, Vantage BioTrials is a full-service clinical trial management organization based in Canada, with operational capabilities across North America, Latin America, and Europe. We invited the team at VBT to tell us more about the company and the services that it offers, as it features in our 2017 Global Excellence Awards as the Most Client Focused Clinical Trial Management Firm – Canada. Lastly, Straitons Whitelaw has developed from a company formation agency to a boutique law firm providing comprehensive legal, tax consulting, and corporation services from their offices in London, Hong Kong and Malta. Managing Director, Heiko Schröter provides us with an overview of the company’s services. Here at Acquisition Intl. Magazine, we truly hope that you thoroughly enjoy reading this edition, and we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Jessie Daykin - Editor -
