The Aggregator Conference, hosted by NEWOLD CAPITAL, promises to be a landmark event for business leaders seeking to tap into the power of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) for sustained growth. Set to take place on September 4, 2026, from 5 PM to 7 PM at the Assembly Hall in Harajuku, this event will feature influential figures from the aggregator landscape, sharing their expertise and insights.

Event Highlights

1. forest, focused on the e-commerce domain.
2. Gemba Kyoso Kiko, specializing in construction.
3. Tokitsukaze, which operates in the education sector.

Attendees will be privy to critical discussions regarding the criteria for evaluating potential M&A targets, the characteristics that make companies attractive to aggregators, and strategic considerations post-acquisition. Whether you are a business owner contemplating an acquisition or a leader looking for guidance on how to position your company for a successful sale, this event will be invaluable.

Highlights include:

• - Aggregator Talk Session: An overview of each company's operations and M&A successes, alongside their viewpoints on investments and company evaluations.
• - PMI Overview: Insights into post-merger integration strategies that are vital for successful amalgamations.
• - Networking Opportunities: The conference will feature dedicated time for networking following the session, allowing participants to build valuable connections and exchange ideas with peers and experts alike.
