CONFERENCE
OVERVIEW

iiBIG is proud to be returning to the “Windy City” – Chicago, IL– on May 8th to present:

HEALTHCARE+LIFE SCIENCES
Investment and M&A Summit 2024

This event will be held in association with our PLATINUM Sponsor, KPMG… and will be held on the 55th Floor of KPMG’s meeting facility at 200 E. Randolph Street… overlooking magnificent panoramic views of the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan.

Where are investors looking to find the best deal flow opportunities in the Healthcare and Life Sciences sectors?
What constitutes a fair valuation multiple in these markets?
What are the ‘dos-and-don’ts’ before, during and, after transactions in these sectors?
How has AI affected deal flow in the healthcare, life sciences and biotech sectors?
In the current high interest rate environment, are more distressed and turnaround opportunities coming to the table?

There is no better place to gather deal flow intelligence than at an in-person B2B conference like this one, where off-the-record conversations can take place among professionals who are knowledgeable about the true pulse of these markets.

iiBIG has been holding healthcare and life sciences conferences annually since 2007. Our events have become known as among the ‘must-attend’ B2B middle-market healthcare and life sciences investment events in the US. For over 15 years, we have attracted a 360⁰ cross-section of players in the Healthcare & Life Sciences M&A ‘food chain.’ (Click on ‘Past Attendees’ above to view a sample of the levels of senior executives and types of organizations that have attended previously).
