Modelling & Budgetting

Gain expertise in operational and financial modeling to make informed business decisions. Strategic Finance professionals need not be 3-statement modeling ninjas (though basics are essential). Instead, they should design models that answer crucial questions like:

- Which product feature is the most sensitive to LTV?
- How is cash flow impacted if my churn decreases by 25%?

Strategic Projects / M&A

While merger modeling is valuable, it alone is insufficient for successful tech M&A transactions (yes you will learn a merger model). However, in this course, we prioritize the comprehensive M&A process: buy vs. build, target screening, financing, and regulations. Additionally, we delve into strategic partnerships, covering critical aspects such as strategic thinking, partner screening, and negotiation techniques.
