Taft Sponsors 2024 Minneapolis Dealmakers Conference

Taft is the presenting sponsor for the Minneapolis Dealmakers Conference, which will take place on Oct. 30, 2024. The Smart Business Dealmakers Conference connects hundreds of local dealmakers, from middle-market CEOs to top investors and lenders to leading M&A advisers. With sessions on topics ranging from raising capital to buying and selling companies to managing a liquidity event, the conference covers the breadth of the M&A landscape.

Taft assembled a keynote panel, "NIL: The Future of the Business of College Sports," which will be moderated by Taft partner Steve Kozachok. The roundtable will focus on the transformative power of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) rights in college sports and the art of building fan-centric organizations in professional and minor league sports. Panelists will include Blake Baratz, Founder & President of IFA; Katie Harms, Consultant at Space Options; Cale Johnston, CEO at Roy, Inc.; and Gabriel Szerda, Managing Director at AB CarVal.
