This session will help new owners and leadership teams understand why people stay, disengage, or leave after an acquisition, and what internal conversations quietly decide the outcome long before turnover shows up on a spreadsheet.

Start your morning with coffee and focused conversation alongside other business owners.

This is a small-group working session for people in the work.

Acquiring a business can be one of the fastest ways to grow—but it comes with risks that aren’t always obvious at first glance. 

Running a business can be all-consuming. Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is step away.

Join us for a webinar to discuss the importance of financial due diligence with Ampleo’s Patrick McMillan.

This panel is about the other side of ETA — the part that starts after the wire hits and the pressure turns on. Missed projections. Tight cash. Lender conversations you hoped you’d never have. Moments where bankruptcy, lender workouts, or walking away feel uncomfortably close.

Finding a good business to buy is rarely about a single listing or a single platform. It’s about understanding how deal flow actually moves, how brokers think about buyers and sellers, and how to position yourself as a credible acquirer long before a deal is under LOI.

Start your morning with good coffee and even better conversations.

No agenda. No pitches. Just a casual hangout for business owners.
