2023 UPPER MIDWEST CAPITAL CONNECTION
For over 16 years, the Upper Midwest Capital Connection has been the premier sourcing, networking and educational event for dealmakers in the Upper Midwest. It starts with an afternoon of golf and lawn bowling and a wine-tasting opening night reception. The following day we get down to business with productive conversations, timely panel discussions and informative speakers. We work to provide private equity firms and investment banks with multiple opportunities to meet and source deals while making sure our valued sponsors and other attendees make essential long-lasting connections. Please find detailed information in the sidebar on the left side of the page.
