Transaction Advisors Institute hosted the M&A Forum Seattle on October 1, 2026 at the Rainier Club.

The Transaction Advisors Institute provides corporate M&A teams with information and perspective to deliver high performing transactions. The Institute is a member-driven organization, focused on improving the M&A process and deal performance. Our coverage includes a range of timely issues, strategic considerations, and deal points associated with acquisitions, joint ventures, minority investments, and divestitures. The schedule of annual M&A programs includes three prestigious M&A Conferences and ten M&A Forums, where in-house M&A teams discuss current issues and consider innovative methods for improving deal performance. For a deeper study of the key stages in the deal process, the Institute offers nine M&A Master Classes that build off the M&A Academy, which is an in-depth course that covers proven best practices. Access is exclusively for corporate M&A teams.
