When a company receives funding or takes on debt, it’s an indication that the business is growing and has capital to spend on office space. If a company goes through a merger or acquisition, it may relocate or expand.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to take advantage of these business development opportunities.
In the private markets, companies that are not publicly traded give investors equity in exchange for funding and mentoring. These investors include venture capital firms, which invest in young companies (startups), and private equity firms, which invest in and acquire more established companies.
