The 2026 summit starts October 11.

The organizer cites more than 600 fund managers, limited partners, investment bankers, and industry professionals as potential connections at the conference.

The summit takes place at The Boca Raton in Boca Raton, Florida.

The organizer identifies senior-level professionals, fund managers, limited partners, investment bankers, and other industry professionals as attendees.

It is most useful for lower middle market fund managers raising capital and for limited partners looking for new managers, since the organizer describes a gathering of more than 600 fund managers, LPs and investment bankers, plus a matchmaking program run through CapitaLinx and a wine reception where GPs meet LPs. Wells Fargo Strategic Capital appears among the sponsors, which suggests institutional capital is part of the mix; operating company executives or service providers with no link to fund fundraising would get less from it.

Attendees at private equity and fund investor conferences usually wear business casual to business attire, such as jackets and slacks without ties, and the Florida resort setting in October leans toward lighter fabrics. The evening reception typically calls for a step up to smart casual or a sport coat.
