The Florida ACG Capital Connection is one of the Southeast’s premier conferences for middle-market dealmakers, bringing together private equity investors, investment bankers, corporate executives, and advisors for several days of highly productive networking and deal-making. Hosted annually by the four Florida chapters of the Association for Corporate Growth, the 2026 event is being held at the The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island and has become a key destination for professionals focused on mergers and acquisitions and corporate growth.
Over the past several years, the conference has experienced remarkable growth—expanding from roughly 600 attendees to more than 1,000 participants from across the United States. This rapid growth reflects the increasing importance of Florida and the Southeast as hubs for middle-market investment and deal activity.
The conference is designed to maximize meaningful connections and efficient deal flow. Attendees include private equity firms, family offices, investment banks, lenders, attorneys, accountants, and corporate development executives. A hallmark of the event is its pre-scheduled meeting platform, which allows participants to arrange one-on-one meetings in advance and conduct dozens of targeted conversations over the course of the conference. Many private equity and investment banking firms participate as exhibitors, hosting dedicated tables that serve as meeting hubs throughout the event.
In addition to these scheduled meetings, the agenda features curated networking receptions, educational sessions, and social activities that encourage relationship building in a relaxed setting. The result is a highly efficient environment where conversations often lead directly to new partnerships, deal opportunities, and long-term business relationships.
Today, the Florida ACG Capital Connection continues to grow in both size and reputation, serving as a must-attend event for professionals seeking to expand their network, generate deal flow, and stay connected to the evolving middle-market landscape.
