Johnston Carmichael launches M&A survey

In our first Scotland-wide M&A survey, we want to ask business owners, chief executives, start-up owners and other decision makers about how you’re planning to tackle the challenges which lie ahead.

Is a sale on the cards? If so, who’s buying? And if you’re buying, what’s piquing your interest – and how will you fund an acquisition? We also want to hear from start-ups about their ambitions for the next few years, and how easy (or difficult) it is to attract finance.

The survey only takes a few minutes, and as a thank-you, we’ll enter you into a prize draw to win a £250 gift card to spend in one of Hotel du Vin’s 16 luxury boutique hotels across the UK.
