AGC PARTNERS Thank you for joining us at AGC Partners’ 13 th Annual West Coast Information Security and Broader Technology Growth Conference. As always, we are grateful to the 414 participating companies and all of the attendees for their time and effort in making it such a worthwhile program. We would also like to thank our corporate sponsors, Invest Northern Ireland, S&P Global, Capital Advisors, and Alli- anceBernstein Private Credit Investors for their role in bringing together this event. Today’s program includes panel discussions on today’s most relevant technology topics and presen- tations delivered by CEOs of leading technology companies. We have a strong turnout for the 1-on-1 meetings, and look forward to hearing about the connections and relationships developed during these sessions. After more than 14 years of hosting great growth conferences, the 1-on-1 meetings we facilitate among strategic acquirers, private equity and venture professionals and the technology entrepreneurs have become the cornerstone of AGC events. At our East Coast Technology Growth Conference in mid-September, more than 1,300 1-on-1 meetings were held among 600 participants. Since AGC Partners’ inception in 2003, we have completed 298 transactions and have grown to be- come one of the largest global technology investment banking firms. Our 50+ person team is led by 18 partners located in our Boston headquarters, Silicon Valley, New York, London, and Minneapolis. AGC Partners has been ranked by 451 Research as one of the most active boutique technology dealmakers in the United States for the past 7 years. This momentum continues with a record 32 transactions completed in 2016. We achieve our success by developing and building upon outstand- ing relationships with the most active corporate technology buyers and top VC and PE firms across the globe, many of which are represented at this event. Our continued dedication is to discover and work with exciting emerging growth companies and to help them raise capital or execute strategic transactions in order to propel their businesses to their next stage of growth. To those of you who are current clients or first time attendees at an AGC event, we are confident that you will find this conference to be a valuable experience and we hope to have the opportunity to connect with you during the program.
