2026 ACG Arizona Middle Market May Reception

Come to connect. Come for insights that shape your next deal.

Join ACG Arizona on May 12th for our Middle Market May Reception, an evening designed for the state’s most active dealmakers to connect and gain a competitive edge.

This event features a dedicated networking reception followed by a candid fireside chat with David Tedesco, Founder & CEO of Outlier, one of the largest private companies in the U.S. With an active portfolio including Passport Health, Realty Executives, inDispense, and Anmark, Outlier has built a powerhouse by doing things differently.

Our conversation will focus on:

• Moving Beyond the Playbook: How a unique approach to building and acquiring companies can help you identify local opportunities others might miss.
• The Evolution of Investing: A seasoned perspective on what holds true, what has changed, and how those lessons apply to the current Arizona marketplace.
• Driving Real Value: Why looking beyond the spreadsheet is the key to sustainable M&A and portfolio growth.

This is more than a networking event. It’s an opportunity to sharpen your perspective, uncover new opportunities, and build relationships that directly impact your business.

Come for the high-level networking; stay for the behind-the-scenes stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
