2023 McGuire Woods Independent Sponsor Conference

The 6th Annual McGuireWoods Independent Sponsor Conference is set to occur from October 3-4, 2023, at the Fairmont Dallas in Dallas, TX. This impactful event is expected to attract independent sponsors and capital providers from around the world for two full days of community building, knowledge sharing, and deal network expansion.

This conference provides a matchless stage for networking and business development, emphasizing robust interaction. Following the previous year’s record-breaking success with over 1,050 participants and 4,000 speed-networking meetings, the event has shifted to the larger Fairmont Dallas, allowing for continued growth of the independent sponsor community and an extended speed-networking schedule on the second day.

Besides networking opportunities, the conference features informative panel discussions, social lunches, happy hours, and other networking opportunities. Attendees will have the opportunity to review the participant list beforehand and will have access to the conference website and mobile app for a seamless event experience.

The event is designed primarily for independent sponsors, family offices, private equity funds, alternative investors, senior, unitranche, and mezzanine lenders, and pensions and endowments. However, it’s important to note that the conference is open exclusively to independent sponsors and capital providers, including any funds or family offices sponsoring transactions on a deal-by-deal basis and seeking capital connections.

Registration is currently open at a cost of $450 per attendee. It should be noted that the room block at the Fairmont Dallas has been filled, and no further rooms are available for the conference dates. A limited quantity of rooms, however, have been reserved at the JW Marriott for a rate of $359 per room per night.

This conference presents an unmissable opportunity in the independent sponsor industry for expanding networks, enhancing understanding, and broadening horizons.
