SHS Legal Insights Apéro "Getting Acquired"

October 28, 2026
Kellerhals Carrard, Zurich, 5:00 – 7:30 PM
Getting Acquired: Key Legal Considerations for Healthcare Startups
What happens when your healthcare startup moves from growth story to acquisition target — and are you legally ready when it does?
An acquisition can put years of company-building under the microscope. This Legal Apéro takes a practical, founder-focused look at what matters most once a potential buyer enters the picture:
Due diligence - what buyers scrutinize and where issues can arise, from IP and regulatory matters to corporate, contractual and employment matters
Shareholder rights - navigating different interests and expectations at exit
Deal documentation & liability - key clauses founders should understand
The best preparation starts before a transaction is on the table - we'll cover what founders can do today to get acquisition-ready.
Especially relevant for later-stage healthcare startups and founders considering acquisition. Join us afterward for an apéritif and informal exchange with fellow founders and professionals from the healthcare ecosystem.
