ACG Announces Strategic Partnership with Ampliflyer to Expand Access to AI-Powered Strategy and Intelligence Tools

Chicago, IL — October 14, 2026 — The Association for Corporate Growth^® (ACG) today announced a strategic partnership with Ampliflyer, an AI-powered strategy and intelligence platform that helps executives, investors, advisors, and corporate development teams make better-informed strategic decisions.

Ampliflyer helps investment professionals, advisors, and management teams source acquisition targets, identify and pressure-test growth opportunities, perform valuation analysis, assess markets and sector trends, sharpen strategies, and uncover new opportunities and disruption risks faster and with greater conviction. Purpose-built AI agents support specific workflows, offering users access to the same structured, verified processes used by the world’s leading firms.

The Ampliflyer platform was built with privacy at its core. Work is processed on the user’s device and analyzed through encrypted API calls that are not used for model training. Data is stored only where the user chooses, helping keep sensitive strategies, financial information, and deal information confidential.

Through the partnership, ACG members receive discounts on annual Ampliflyer subscriptions and full access to the platform’s suite of AI-powered strategy and intelligence tools.

“Providing our members with access to solutions that help them work more efficiently is central to ACG’s mission of empowering middle-market M&A professionals,” said Brent Baxter, CEO of ACG. “ACG has been using the platform internally for strategic planning, and now through our partnership with Ampliflyer, members can access this powerful technology at a preferred rate, bringing greater speed and rigor to the decisions that shape deals and create value.”

Client case studies and testimonials demonstrate Ampliflyer’s potential to accelerate diligence, evaluate deals, and identify new avenues for returns. “In my time using Ampliflyer, I’ve been impressed with the product’s functionality and the time savings the platform has provided,” said Bob Dunn, ACG’s chief product officer.

In one case study, Ampliflyer’s platform compressed a 12-week cybersecurity engagement into 12 days. Strategic advisors, meanwhile, have described Ampliflyer as delivering the capabilities of an entire strategy team.

"ACG members spend their careers pursuing growth, multiple expansion, and strong returns—and each one turns on the quality of the decisions behind it,” said Justin Daab, CEO of Ampliflyer. “For decades I’ve guided product and strategy for companies ranging in size from startups to the Fortune 100, and the common thread among them is that generating outsized ROI comes from uncovering new possibilities and broadening perspectives. It’s that philosophy that drives Ampliflyer, and why our unique AI workflows help everyone to look past common assumptions, and point teams toward entirely new horizons they might otherwise miss. We're really excited to put the AI-powered strategic reasoning platform relied on by top-tier firms into the hands of every executive, investor, operating partner, and advisor in the ACG community."

The collaboration reflects ACG’s continued commitment to delivering member offers that help middle-market professionals and the companies they support operate more effectively in a complex business environment.
