The SPAC Conference 2021 | DealFlow Events | 23 June 2021 | Westchester Country Club, 99 Biltmore Ave, Rye, NY 10580, USA

The largest forum for networking and discussion of special purpose acquisition companies and alternative IPO techniques.

The pandemic hasn’t slowed down the SPAC market and it won’t slow down the industry’s leading conference either.

We’re committed to making The SPAC Conference 2021 our best event ever by reinventing our format to offer a setting for education, networking and dining that’s largely outdoors. We’re also doubling the length of the conference from one to two full days to accommodate more attendees and a bigger agenda.

Just ask around. Our reputation speaks volumes about the lengths we go to deliver value – whether it’s our laser-focus on developing the best possible content or rethinking the typical event format in order to adapt to change and deliver a superior experience.

Each year attendees at The SPAC Conference represent a broad range of finance professionals with common interests and shared goals. Our conferences attract the decision makers in an organization – the people empowered to make things happen. This is your opportunity to meet them.
