The conference will feature a comprehensive, full two-day schedule of company presentations, analyst-moderated fireside chats, thought-provoking panel discussions and interactive breakout sessions, with private meetings for management teams and qualified investors.

"For over twenty years, our conference has served as the preeminent forum for connecting institutional investors with proprietary middle-market management teams. We expect to draw record attendance once again this May, providing the biggest networking opportunity yet for our clients, partners, colleagues and friends, while continuing to support the Sugar Ray Leonard Foundation in its quest to stamp out juvenile diabetes," said Andy Moore, Chief Executive Officer of B.
