Participating in the Search Funds Summit 2025 at IE University was a genuine pleasure. Javier Puig had the honor of joining a dynamic panel — “POST-ACQUISITION: WHERE REALITY BEGINS” — with outstanding entrepreneurs and CEOs, Jacobo Vera Artazcoz and Álvaro de Rivera López de Letona, as well as leading legal expert Enrique Chamorro. The discussion was moderated by Sébastien Chartier.
The conversation went straight to the heart of what happens after a company is acquired: navigating the transition with previous owners, building trust with teams, strengthening governance, driving strategic pivots, and laying the groundwork for scalable growth. These shared experiences offered valuable insight into the realities of the first hundred days and the lessons learned along the way.
