(SEJONG=NEWSIS) The Ministry of Trade, Industry & Energy (MOTIE) held the Italy (EU) M&A Deal Sourcing Plaza on September 22 to support Korean companies entering the European market.

Some of Italy’s leading mergers and acquisitions (M&A) consulting and law firms, including Cross Border, Intesa Sanpaolo, Banca IMI, GOP, Chiomenti and Bonellierede, participated in the event to provide M&A-related consultations for Korean companies and help them reach M&A deals with European companies.

“Overseas M&A deals are an effective way to help local small- and medium-sized companies secure the European distribution network in a short period of time and grow as global exporters,” said a MOTIE official.
