“Sport meets Corporate Finance” in Cologne: In conversation with Toni Schumacher
BLOK Management relies on innovative approaches to provide managing directors and board members with insights into the world of the M&A sector. One such example is the recent exclusive event “Sport meets Corporate Finance”, which was organized in cooperation with renowned partners such as Fieldfisher, MSW GmbH and Quirin Privatbank AG. The event not only offered exciting insights into the world of professional soccer, but also highly interesting specialist presentations on current topics in the financial market. Among the speakers was Toni Schumacher, former German soccer goalkeeper and known for his successful career with Cologne and the German national team. After his active time in soccer, Schumacher used his network and experience to become involved in the financial sector. During the event, the parallels between his sporting experience and entrepreneurship were intensively discussed. Other renowned speakers such as Carsten Peter, Holger Clemens Hinz, Horst Mantay, Dr. Mathias Thiere and Dr. Axel Hoppe also contributed to the success of the event. BLOK Management plans to hold similar events in other cities to further deepen the link between sport and corporate finance. BLOK Management’s goal is to shed light on the rapidly evolving world of corporate transactions and provide clients with innovative insights and solutions. Interested parties will have the opportunity to follow BLOK Management’s future initiatives and events to shape the future of M&A together and be mentored and guided by experienced partners.
