In this episode of Poised for Exit, we sit down with Matt Silasiri, Vice President of Business Development at True North M&A, to talk all about the upcoming 3rd Annual M&A Summit, happening September 17th at the JW Marriott at Mall of America in Bloomington, MN.

This exclusive event is designed for business owners, advisors, and industry professionals who want to deepen their understanding of the mergers and acquisitions process - whether they're planning to sell, thinking about succession, or exploring growth through acquisition.

Matt and Julie walk through the full agenda, which includes expert panels, a live valuation case study, a buy-side and sell-side panel with real clients, and an economic update from the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce. One of the most anticipated parts of the event is the keynote presentation by David Horsager, CEO of the Trust Edge Leadership Institute. Horsager’s talk will dive into the critical role trust plays in M&A transactions and business leadership - and all attendees will receive a copy of his new book.

Beyond the programming, this event is also about building connections. With dedicated networking opportunities, reserved table options, and a who's who of Minnesota’s business community in attendance, it’s a day built for both education and strategic relationship-building.

Julie shares her experience attending the event in prior years and why she believes it’s a must-attend for business owners at any stage. Whether you’re just starting to think about an exit or actively preparing for one, this event is one that will help you get clear on your next steps and the value of being proactive.
