NIBA Announces 151st Investment Conference to Foster Micro-Cap and Small-Cap Industry Collaboration

The National Investment Banking Association (NIBA) will host its 151st Investment Conference on September 16-17, 2025, at The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. This flagship event serves as a critical platform for registered investment advisors, private equity groups, family offices, investment bankers, broker-dealers, venture capital firms, fund managers, investors, and industry service providers to connect and explore investment opportunities in the micro-cap and small-cap space.

Participating companies will deliver concise 10-minute presentations detailing their business operations, sector opportunities, and growth roadmaps, followed by structured one-on-one meetings with seasoned investment professionals. Executive Director Emily Foshee emphasized NIBA's decades-long commitment to fostering partnerships across its extensive network, which includes more than 60 industry services. The conference continues its mission to strengthen cross-industry collaboration and facilitate capital formation for emerging companies.

NIBA's significance in the investment community stems from its 40-year track record of successfully completing thousands of transactions totaling over $100 billion in new capital for emerging growth companies. The association has been responsible for 90% of all initial public offerings under $20 million, demonstrating its pivotal role in supporting small-cap market development.
