M&A/dealmaker conference returns to Nashville May
11-12 for its "Scaling New Heights" event, bringing together
investment banks, private equity firms, lenders, corporate
executives and professional advisors involved in planning,
financing and directing corporate growth
NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 5,
2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Mid-South ACG Capital
Connection returns to Tennessee in
a big way this May 11-12.
Held virtually in 2021 and cancelled in 2020 because of COVID,
organizers for the 2022 conference are expecting a strong
contingent of investment banks, private equity firms, lenders,
corporate executives and professional advisors from across the
country to converge on Omni Nashville for the two-day M&A
"Scaling New Heights" event.
"It's a great opportunity to uncover new trends and ideas,
secure capital, network with like-minded professionals and bring
value to your company," said Tatjana
Paterno, chair of the 2022 event and partner at Bass Berry
& Sims PLC. "We are very excited about this event and look
forward to seeing our attendees in person in just a few weeks."
ACG is expecting to exceed the event's previous high, when more
than 500 professionals from across the U.S. registered to attend
Mid-South ACG Capital Connection in person. "We are receiving great
feedback and a lot of anticipation for this annual event," said
Jim Dickson, ACG Tennessee chair and
senior vice president of Lockton. "Everyone's more than ready to
attend."
Staged jointly by the Tennessee
and Kentucky chapters of the Association for Corporate Growth
(ACG), the conference assists M&A dealmakers in identifying
funding sources and advisory professionals who support transactions
through accounting, legal, valuation and other services.
The conference explores Nashville's demonstrated economic growth and
its evolution as a dealmaking city, while paying homage to its deep
music heritage and its many other attractions. The legendary
country music group The Oak Ridge Boys headline the opening night
reception at the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Expert industry and economic panels -- to be announced
separately -- explore topics to help dealmakers identify
opportunities and navigate the 2022
M&A landscape. Mid-South continues to host its popular
private equity marketplace, investment banking connection meetings,
small group networking lounges, and one-on-one deal meetings that
identify, build and support business.
Standard registration is open until April
14. Private equity groups, investment bankers and business
professionals can register at https://tinyurl.com/2022MSCC . The
conference is open to both ACG members and non-member
professionals. The conference showcase page at
