A virtual data room or VDR is a web-based solution particularly created for the storing and sharing of confidential data. VDRs provide specific sets of options like advanced permissions, tracking features, Q&A tool, as well as multiple-factor authentication and watermarking.
Though virtual data rooms are historically utilized for financial transactions, IPOs, and fundraising, their use cases are increasing. Any business involved with the secure and specialized management of its data can opt for VDRs.
Today, data room providers are progressively building machine learning technology into their software system, thereby enlarging their supply to incorporate tools to use their data room platform for file-synchronization, internal repositories, or secure communication with investors.
Before we hear about the latest M&A, joint venture, IPO or fundraising deal in the news, every transaction is clouded in secrecy. So much so that a special code name is used when referring to each deal.
Although the data is hard to pin down, the body of research suggests that around half of mergers and acquisitions fail to add any value. While this might make uncomfortable reading for any company about to undergo the M&A process, it is a timely reminder of the importance of the due diligence process and undergoing a thorough audit and evaluation process before anything is signed.
Penta discusses with EthosData how a startup organizes a seed round. Penta is a German digital-only bank for startups and small and medium entreprises, raised early this year a €2.2M seed round.
Only around 50% of M&A deals actually go through according to Forbes magazine. The main reason for that high failure rate is that the companies acquired looked better on paper than they actually were. This makes a well executed due diligence process critical, which is only possible if the full M&A life cycle is properly executed.
