Searchers and independent sponsors:
Here is a list of the relevant conferences for you (click link in the comments below).
In my experience, conferences aren't productive for sourcing deals, but they are valuable venues for meeting investors and learning from peers.
Thanks to LCS Forensic Accounting & Advisory for compiling this list (Max Lummis, CPA, CVA, CFE).
Please comment or DM me if you can help expand or improve the list (in particular, I need to add conferences outside the US).
