CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
The Texas ACG Capital Connection (TACC) conference is presented by
the Houston, Dallas / Fort Worth, and Austin / San Antonio Chapters of the
Association for Corporate Growth. I am heartened to say that with over
1,200 attendees expected to attend, this conference continues to rank as
one of THE premier middle market private equity and M&A conferences in
the country, highlighting the importance of Texas and the Southwest in the
deal world.
As we began planning this year’s conference, we started with a few very
specific goals in mind. First and foremost, we wanted to continue our Network,
focus on making TACC both efficient and impactful for all the attendees.
We have organized the conference so that the entire event takes place share ideas
over a 24-hour period, placing the highest emphasis on networking,
meetings and dealmaking. and forge
Additionally, we know that an important element of any conference are the
ancillary events that sponsors and attendees host around the conference new business
itself. We believe that those events enrich the overall experience for
attendees, and we have crafted our conference schedule and timeline to relationships
encourage and facilitate those hosted events.
Of course, TACC wouldn’t be the successful conference that it is without
the attendees. As one of the largest ACG Capital Connections in the
country, TACC brings more than 115 of the nation’s leading private equity
and mezzanine firms to Texas, representing more than $100 billion of
capital under management. This year, we expect more than 48 investment
banks from around the country to host nearly 80 tables during DealSource
for an afternoon of one-on-one meetings with private equity groups.
Further enriching the conference is the sponsorship and attendance by
other members of the business and deal community in Texas – attorneys,
accountants, lenders, consultants, insurance providers, corporate
development executives and, of course, business owners themselves.
Their contributions have made this conference what it is today.
TACC is a unique opportunity to network, share ideas and forge new
relationships. We are excited to see you in Houston and we hope you’re
able to accomplish your conference goals.
Most of all, thank you for your support and for attending TACC.
Sincerely,
Colt Luedde
