Our mission is to foster meaningful connections among women leaders in the deal-making community by providing opportunities to share experiences, build networks, and support one another's success.
ACG Women Connect serves as a dynamic forum for women in the South Florida M&A space to cultivate relationships, exchange ideas, and access a supportive professional network. The group hosts 3-4 events annually, bringing together over 30-40 women professionals at each gathering.
Committee members meet regularly to strengthen their connections while creating a valuable referral network within the traditionally male-dominated M&A industry. Committed to championing women in their professional journeys, ACG Women Connect is dedicated to empowering women in M&A to achieve lasting success.
