ACG New England Lower Middle-Market Dealmaking Conference 2026

ACG Boston & ACG Connecticut are thrilled to announce the 2nd Annual ACG New England Lower Middle-Market Dealmaking Conference this September, hosted once again in Newport, RI!

The ACG New England Lower Middle-Market Dealmaking Conference will focus exclusively on the lower middle-market, bringing together investors, boutique investment bankers, advisors and business executives from across New England who are working with businesses new to the M&A process.

Industry leaders will explore the complexities of the lower middle-market, sharing strategic insights, market trends, and first-hand experiences on guiding businesses through their first liquidity event.

Set along the beautiful seacoast on Goat Island, this conference will provide opportunity for post-summer networking, 1:1 meetings for all participants, rich content curated for the lower middle market, and unique New England experiences like tennis (at the International Tennis Hall of Fame), sailing, croquet & an oceanside clambake. 

Space is limited!

Lower Middle Market is defined in this case as independent companies with generally less than $15M in EBITDA, and including those business owners interested in exploring an M&A process, whether they are buying, selling, or exploring growth partners.
