Hear From BTF Alumni
As a first-time attendee, BTF was the perfect starting point. The forum gave me a clear understanding of the landscape and how to prepare early.
BTF connected me with the right advisor at exactly the right time. That relationship directly led to a successful sale of my business in 2025.
BTF was my first real deep dive into business transition and growth pathways. The insights helped me think differently about value creation.
You want to come to this conferences years in advance of wanting to sell, because you want to be thinking about how to build your business, you want to be meeting the strategic partners who may help you.
I think BTF does a great job of really setting the tone of community, connection and really making sure entrepreneurs feel supported.
It’s a very welcoming conference, and a conference that anybody can just approach anybody and strike up a conversation.
I wished I had of participated in something like this before we transacted.
