Page 1

2023 SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES Updated September2023

The 21st Annual edition of M&A South, the preeminent sourcing, networking, and educational event for dealmakers in the Southern United States is set for February 6-8, 2023, at The Hotel at Avalon. We are planning another high-quality and high-impact event that will allow for great networking and learning opportunities.

M&A South 2023 will offer the premier experience our audience expects while following appropriate health and safety protocols. Our live event in February will have ample outdoor spaces and will be supplemented with online content allowing your brand to be presented in more ways than ever before.

Thanks to the wonderful, consistent support of our sponsors, M&A South has become the #1 dealmaking event in the South. The first major M&A conference of the year, M&A South provides a prime opportunity for participants to fill their deal pipelines and gain valuable insights from industry thought leaders. Sponsors like yourselves capitalize on this unique environment with opportunities to market their brands and M&A-related capabilities to an attractive audience of senior dealmakers and capital providers.

We appreciate your support and consideration and look forward to having you as an M&A South sponsor in 2023!

Best regards, Colby Schwartz Chair, M&A South 2023
