Partner Todd E. Soloway, co-chair of Pryor Cashman's Litigation Group, Head of the Hotel + Hospitality Group and Real Estate Litigation practice, will join the 43rd Annual NYU International Hospitality Industry Investment Conference. Hosted by the NYU School of Professional Studies Jonathan M. Tisch Center of Hospitality, the NYU Hospitality Investment Conference will take place from November 7 - November 9, 2021. featured general sessions, workshops, and networking events that provide data, analysis, perspectives, insights, and opportunities. Soloway will moderate one of three concurrent finance workshop panels titled "M&A Today: The Urge to Merge." See the below event description for more information.

REIT’s do it.  Data analytics entities do it. Technology companies do it too.  And branded hotel companies have been doing it for years now.  The urge to merge persists.  Is this driven by the need for scale? By the lack of availability of other growth opportunities? Or is it simply the continual proving out of capitalism’s economic model where efficiency must win?  The players and experts discuss the big picture, the strategies behind some of the recent M&A activity in the news, and what we can look forward to for the rest of the year.

Arthur Goldfrank
