You company has grown to $25M in revenue and profitability. What are your options in these challenging economic markets?

Equity and debt capital sources have tightened up! The public markets are a roller-coaster! Nothing comes easy anymore! Should late-stage companies seek a financial exit OR use this opportunity to expand their businesses into new market segments?

How can a company grow and fund its ambitions in the middle of this financial Armageddon?!! Given that the IPO market has dried up, corporate M&A groups have limited cash or stock to use for strategic acquisitions, PE Firms are struggling to recover from the debt binge of the last 5 years, and venture capital firms are shrinking fund sizes as returns go into the toilet, what are the growth alternatives for late-stage companies?

This diverse panel of corporate managers, investors, investment bankers, and other members of the ecosystem will discuss the issues faced by more mature companies, such as the right time to exit a business, funding alternatives, and team / board building strategies
