In their words

What delegates have said

“I thought the Trade Mission was one of the most unique fundraising assets I've ever seen. The ability to have 50+ warm leads provided over the course of 1 day is phenomenal. It would have been impossible for our fund to have done anything like this ourselves and I doubt any financial service organizations could have provided a stronger group. I would highly recommend the Trade Mission, not just because of the quantity of potential investors but the quality of investors.”
Maxx BricklinPrincipal, Bold Capital Partners, LP
“Our company has been involved with foreign investors for over 30 years. It typically takes several years and multiple visits to have high quality meetings with investors in a new country. This conference was incredibly valuable to us because it allowed us to accomplish this in one day instead of over a prolonged period of time.”
Joel BayerPartner, Executive Vice President & Chief Investment Officer, O'Connor Capital Partners
