Deal language, taught the way a Taipei desk actually uses it.
PageWork Core is a teaching atelier for M&A Advisory Consulting. We drill the memos, pegs, and caveat lists that keep a junior from over-claiming in front of a partner. No theatre. Files, then vocabulary, then judgment.
Cross-Border Mandate Literacy
The program we run when a Taiwanese corporates team is about to sit in a Hong Kong or Singapore process and needs to stop sounding like a translation of a CIM. You will mark up a working-capital peg, write a one-page issue list a partner can actually read, and learn which synergy sentences should never leave the room.
Informational fee from NT$48,000 for the Desk Brief track. This is tuition, not a retainer, and it does not put you on a live mandate.
Three seats on the current board
Quality of Earnings for Buy-Side Briefings
How to interrogate add-backs without pretending you are the auditor.
SPA Language for Non-Lawyers
Indemnity baskets, MAC clauses, and the sentences partners actually circle.
Taiwan Outbound Diligence Fieldcraft
Site visits, related-party maps, and how to write what you did not see.
How a briefing is built here
File first
You receive a redacted pack: CIM excerpt, trial balance slice, and a messy email from “client.” No lecture until you have marked the pack.
Partner red ink
Faculty annotate your issue list the way a Taipei MD would: too long, too certain, missing the tax leak.
Spoken version
You then have four minutes to present. If the sentence would not survive a board, it does not survive the studio.
Notes from people who sat the work
The working-capital module in Cross-Border Mandate Literacy made me stop treating the peg as a rounding item. I still wish they had given us a second manufacturing file; the consumer example was cleaner than what I see at work.
SPA Language for Non-Lawyers is the only course that made me write “I am not counsel” on the cover of my notes. Useful. Slightly humbling.
Bring a file you are allowed to discuss.
If you cannot bring a file, we will issue a studio pack. Either way, write us before you pay tuition.
