Entrepreneurship through Acquisition: Valuing and Acquiring Small Businesses

Astana | August 7, 2025 | 17:00–20:00

Led by Dr. David T. Robinson, Fuqua School of Business (Duke University)

Price: 60.000 KZT

Entrepreneurship through Acquisition (ETA) is a powerful and increasingly popular path to business

ownership — one that involves identifying, acquiring, and scaling small, established businesses.

Instead of launching a risky startup, ETA allows entrepreneurs to step into an operating company

and take it to the next level.

What you will learn:

● Understand the strategic rationale and financial mechanics behind ETA;

● Distinguish ETA from traditional start-ups and private equity buyouts;

● Analyze a target company’s cash flow and estimate enterprise value using multiple valuation

techniques;

● Evaluate deal terms, financing structures, and stakeholder incentives from both buyer and

seller perspectives.

This in-person session blends theory and practice through mini-lectures, a real local case study, collaborative work, and networking over coffee.

Seats are limited.
