DealMakers 2008 Outlook Conference

Wednesday, February 13, 2008
2:00pm – 7:00pm
Boston Park Plaza Hotel

What's ahead for mergers + acquisitions
in 2008?

Come to the DealMakers 2008 Outlook Conference and find out…

As the year begins, the market continues to feel the effects of last year's sub-prime-driven credit crunch. The flow of large deals has slowed dramatically, and global economic activity seems to be slowing. For insight into this fast-changing marketplace and the risks and opportunities it presents, we invite you to the DealMakers 2008 Outlook Conference, presented by ACG Boston and Associated Industries of Massachusetts, to be held on February 13, 2008 at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel.

Gathered will be leaders in the deal community who will share their perspectives on topics including:

• What's ahead for the middle market?
• Will strategic acquirers dominate deal activity this year – or is it too soon to count private equity firms out?
• Are big deals dead or just on life support?
• Will a recession take hold – or will the economy come roaring back?

Join us for an informative series of sessions featuring experts in every segment of our industry.
