ACG Orange County Lenders Marketplace Provides Venue for Local Business Community to Find Capital

March 6, 2013 - PRLog -- TUSTIN, Calif. -- The Association for Corporate Growth Orange County Chapter (ACG-OC) will hold its third annual Lenders Marketplace event on Tuesday, March 12 from 5:00-7:30 PM at the Marconi Automotive Museum in Tustin, Calif. The trade show style event is designed to showcase the variety of lending sources in Orange County before an audience of business owners, CEOs, and CFOs, as well as M&A firms and professional service providers across Southern California.

Sponsors will include banks, sub-debt and mezzanine lenders, factoring companies, PE and hedge fund managers, leasing companies, and asset-based as well as distressed-situation lenders.  Companies who have committed to participate in the ACG OC event include: Alostar Business Credit, Bank of the West, California Bank & Trust, Cembrus, Chase, Citi Bank, Cole Taylor Business Capital, Community Bank, EH Bank, First Bank, GlassRatner Advisory & Capital Group, LSQ Funding Group, LC, Orange County Business Bank, Opus Bank, PNC Business Credit, Silicon Valley Bank, Sunwest Bank, US Bank, and Wells Fargo.

Participating lenders will display their marketing materials as well as serve their favorite premium beer to attract attendees to their respective exhibition tables.

According to Dave Krajanowski, ACG-OC president and managing director of Singer Lewak, today’s economy demands a deeper level of understanding about the banking and commercial credit markets than ever before.

”Companies need to know their financing options, as well as the key lenders in our community,” Krajanowski asserted. “The credit markets are rapidly evolving and lenders are getting back in the game, in many cases with very favorable pricing.  The Lenders Marketplace gives business owners, CEOs, CFOs, ACG OC members and non-members who are professional service providers a prime opportunity to explore the current state of the market for both capital and operations financing.  Based on the overwhelming success of this year’s Private Equity event, and with market conditions improving, we anticipate a strong turnout.”
