The Business Owners' Summit 2026: Plan Today for the Exit You Want Tomorrow
If you’re a business owner planning to sell your business within the next 1 to 5 years, the decisions you make today can have a meaningful impact on what your future exit looks like.
Join the Exit Advisor Alliance of South Florida for The Business Owners’ Summit 2026, a high-value, four-hour morning event designed to bring business owners together with experienced advisors and valuable connections to help them think strategically about what comes next.
Centered around People, Ideas, Opportunities, Brighter Futures, the Summit offers a collaborative environment to learn, connect, and gain practical perspective as you prepare for your next chapter.
This year, we’re bringing the Summit to The Addison in Boca Raton - a beautiful setting for a great meal, valuable content, and meaningful conversations beyond the typical corporate meeting.
