Move beyond general market sentiment and get the granular data you need to price deals accurately in the current climate.

Fuel Your 2026 And Beyond M&A Pipeline

Accelerate your deal flow in an ecosystem designed for transactions. As a specialized M&A firm, we treat this summit as a catalyst for deal-making, not just discussion. You will leave with tangible leads and actionable opportunities to populate your immediate and long-term acquisition pipeline.

Network With Your Industry Peers [~200 Attendees]

Exchange intelligence with the sector’s most active acquirors and investors. This is a calibrated environment for high-level networking, allowing you to discuss capital structures, operational playbooks, and market consolidation strategies with a vetted group of professionals operating at your level.

Connect With High Quality Brands

Bypass the intermediaries and engage directly with the talent behind the numbers. We have hand-selected a cohort of high-performing, 7-to-8-figure eCommerce brand founders and operators. This is your opportunity to build proprietary relationships with prospective targets before they hit the broader market.
