About ACG

The Association for Corporate Growth, founded in 1954, is a global association for professionals involved in corporate growth, corporate development, and mergers and acquisitions.  Today ACG Stands at more than 10,000 members who represent Fortune 500, Fortune 1000, FTSE 100, and mid-market companies in 53 chapters in North America, Europe and Asia.  ACG members have focused on strategic activities that increase revenues, profits and, ultimately, stakeholder value.  The Vancouver Chapter of the ACG meets at least once per month to network and to participate in activities for the professional development of its members.  We feature guest speakers who share their stories and lessons on how they stewarded their company through growth and transitions. 

ACG offers the following other member’s benefits:

  

Chapter Meetings & Recreational Activities

A number one benefit of membership, chapter meetings provide multiple chances to meet local people of similar professional interests. Chapters also offer other enrichment: regional conferences, social outings and sometimes exotic vacation experiences.

Intellectual Capital

Members tell us they want to know all there is to know about how to handle their businesses better. Therefore, we have assembled information on a wide variety of topics that give members the information they need to do their jobs better. To access this information, members may log on to the Knowledge Exchange on the ACG Web site. More than 75 news stories and articles are organized by topic related to corporate growth. This translates to a dynamic catalog of corporate growth stories refreshed on a semi-monthly basis!

Discounted professional publications

A wide variety of publications and opportunities related to specialty areas within corporate growth -- such as valuation, tax issues and insurance -- are discounted for ACG members. They are listed in detail in Member Perks on the ACG Home Page.

 ACG Personalized Web Page

ACG's newly refurbished Web site, a portal of corporate growth information worldwide, invites members to personalize their home pages with high-value information. The portal, all new as of 8/15/00, will become a virtual library of corporate growth information for those members taking advantage of the new member benefit
