Corporate Development Forum Sponsor

For more than a decade, companies in the financial services industry have favored online workspaces (also known as virtual datarooms or virtual dealrooms) over time intensive, costly paper-based dealrooms for mergers and acquisitions and loan syndication transactions. In recent years, other industries have discovered the numerous benefits an online workspace provides for managing access to critical and sensitive information, and safeguarding against increased security and compliance risks.

Since 1997, more than 750,000 users representing over 90,000 organizations worldwide have used our On-Demand Workspaces™ to safeguard documents, streamline communication and collaborate on thousands of projects and deals. As the leader in the online workspace market, we feel our success is attributed to our unwavering commitment to delivering quality solutions and best-in-class client service, while being dedicated to client satisfaction.
