The focus of Perspectives is to use the direct, instant and interactive nature of a blog to not only share the latest industry developments, research and the outlook of our staff, but to solicit your thoughts and opinions plus generate an open dialogue that benefits all participants.

Since 1983, BIAfn has helped clients build enterprise value and improve operational efficiency by providing expert financial consulting and strategic advisory services, as well as a comprehensive array of media research and investment resources. BIAfn offers services related to acquisitions including fair market valuations and purchase price allocations in addition to our financial and technological due diligence and expert testimony work. We also specialize in impairment testing for any number of spectrum licenses and goodwill.

Our strategic services include merger / divestiture / investment / technology strategy consulting plus general business, developmental and operational strategy and planning.
