A Blog from Gerbsman Partners Board of Intellectual Capital on “Maximizing Enterprise Value” for technology, life science, medical device and cleantech companies and their Intellectual Property
After 50 years in business the adage of ‘the more things change the more they remain the same” is still true. The same business disciplines for cash, financials, leadership, know how to communicate and having “ethics and integrity” continue to be the basic discipline for success.
As a “Mentor” at Stanford University’s annual MBA competitions, I have tried to instill in entrepreneurs, who are the hope for our future the knowledge I have gained over the years. Please see below a talk I delivered at the Stanford Tech Ventures Program on “why companies succeed and why companies fail”.
Identifying the early warning signs and maximizing value of under-performing and distressed portfolio companies.
Steven R. Gerbsman, Principal of Gerbsman Partners, is pleased to announce the successful termination of a technology company prohibitive real estate lease.
The technology company needed to accomplish the above in order to obtain the necessary “bridge financing” to provide runway for a round of “expansion capital funding”.
Gerbsman Partners assisted by:
creating a strategic plan to accomplish the successful termination of the prohibitive real estate lease
negotiating with the real estate lessor and finalizing the termination of the lease
Gerbsman Partners is the “innovator” in creating strategies to terminate or restructure prohibitive real estate leases and senior and sub-debt obligations, as well as creditor issues. To date, we have terminated or restructured over $810 million of such obligations for private and public companies, which has allowed the potential of returning the company to financial viability.
