• The workshop, held on September 24, included educational panel discussions, small breakout groups, one-on-one meetings and expert advice tailored to the needs of Facilisgroup distributor partners. Each session provided actionable insights for those ready to sell their businesses and those simply wanting to learn more about the process.
