Today, more than a quarter of Babson students enter a finance-related field post-graduation. BIBA strives to help prepare these Babson students for a profession in the financial services industry and to strengthen the bond between current students and alumni. We hope you find this conference succeeds with these goals.
Today’s conference has brought together more than a dozen leading professionals from a wide-range of firms. Today’s discussions revolve around different entities and vantage points involving investment banking, including: Private Equity, Sales & Trading, Entrepreneurship through Acquisitions, and the Summer Analyst Role.

Entrepreneurship through Acquisitions

He found the work to be too repetitive and didn't like staring at a screen all
day. Adam tried M&A, consulting, and even prop trading and moved around
a lot (from London to Shanghai to Beijing to Hong Kong). He learned about
search funds during his first year at business school and started formally
searching a month before graduation. Adam liked the idea of controlling his
own destiny and having a wild ride trying to successfully take over and grow
a small business. He decided to fund his own search because he wanted to
control the business he bought and have flexibility about the type of deal he
looked at.
