Capstone
Capstone: running a cross-border deal team
Marlowe & Pryce is an invented law firm in Northgate. It is advising Tessaly Foods, an invented food company, on buying Kinfara Spices, an invented family business based in the port city of Vaskor, in a country you may imagine as you like. The deal team has four lawyers in four places: you, the lead, in Northgate; a corporate partner, Ms Okonjo, in a city six hours ahead whose week runs Sunday to Thursday; a local counsel, Mr Haldane-Ruiz, in Vaskor, nine hours ahead on a Monday-to-Friday week; and an associate, Ms Tanaka, working remotely eleven hours ahead. The seller, Mr Verrecchia, is the founder of Kinfara, a courteous, formal man of seventy who prefers to build a relationship before discussing terms and who has used a translator in some earlier meetings. You have five weeks to signing. Everything here is invented. Use the tools of the course to plan the work, and write a short plan for the team.
