Technology is having a significant impact on how we conduct and execute transactions. In addition to streamlining due diligence, machine learning software allows us to conduct more comprehensive reviews than ever before and enables focused reviews for specific provisions that may be problematic. This ability to identify, prioritize and highlight documents underscores the importance of due diligence strategies as a means of uncovering the potential value of a transaction while mitigating the risk of error and unexpected liabilities. Combined with the efficiency gains of transaction management software supporting closings, technology is a powerful tool that is creating opportunities to think more strategically about business transactions.
To gain a better understanding of how technology can be strategically deployed in support of transactions, we invite you to join us for a crash-course on the software used at Osler and a discussion drawing upon the experience of the Osler Works – Transactional team.
Led by Natalie Munroe, Head of Osler Works – Transactional and Danyal Bajwa, Transaction Services Lawyer, this session will cover:
- An introduction to the functionality and capabilities of Kira, Closing Folders and DocuSign
- Transactions and project types best suited for the technologies
- A case study illustrating how a due diligence strategy resulted in a better deal outcome
