For us, an acquisition is not merely a purchase. What is crucial is whether a business can truly be integrated into existing structures: in terms of personnel, operations, economics, contracts, and culture. <\/p>\n

Scharifi therefore views potential participations and acquisitions from the perspective of ongoing operations. What obligations exist? Which teams support the location? Which systems, partners, and contracts are involved? And where do real integration risks arise after the takeover? <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
