Middle Market Deals and how to buy, sell and raise capital from $5 to $500 million

As an entrepreneur or mid-market executive, you really want to know a few key people in the "deal community" in your local market.  Typically, these folks can be found in one place, one group, one organization, one association.  In larger towns, there may be several key groups to join.

In Salt Lake, where I live and work, there are several organizations.  The first group on the scene was the MountainWest Capital Network (formerly the MountainWest Venture Group).  Over the years, a number of other important groups have been formed, including a local chapter of the Association for Corporate Growth and the Utah Information Technology Association, among others.

As an officer of the MountainWest Capital Network (MWCN), I want to use MWCN as an example of the benefits that come from networking within a networking organization of this sort.
