DEALINX ISF

Independent sponsor and capital provider registrants will participate in DeaLinx ISF, a unique platform that allows both parties to explore profiles and select pre-arranged, one-on-one meetings that best match your deal criteria.

You will be invited to access the DeaLinx ISF platform a couple weeks prior to the event with reminder communication sent prior to the launch of the meeting platform. Only one profile is necessary per firm so if you have additional colleagues registered, a meeting point-person will be determined and given access to the meeting platform on the firm's behalf.

The DeaLinx meeting platform will open August 22nd.

PLEASE NOTE: Professional Service Provider participation (i.e. accounting, consulting, due diligence, fund administration, industry data research, law, and software firms) is limited to the firms sponsoring the event. For information on sponsorship please contact us via email at stephanie@isponsorforum.org.
