➡️ Professionals curious to learn, connect, and collaborate in Utah’s ETA ecosystem
Monthly SBA ETA Networking Social Dinner
Connect Buyers, Sellers, Investors, and Lenders—all in one room.
Our signature monthly event brings together the people making small-business deals happen. Whether you're looking to buy your first business, sell a successful company, finance a transaction, or simply expand your network in the entrepreneurial acquisition space—this is for you.
Who Should Attend?
• Business Owners
Thinking about selling your locally owned, profitable business? Meet qualified buyers and funding experts.

Searching for vetted small and medium-sized business opportunities? Get direct access to owners and intermediaries.
• Investors & Searchers
Expand your deal flow, meet lenders, and connect with operators building real-world companies.
• SBA & Commercial Lenders
Engage with acquisition-minded entrepreneurs and sellers exploring their exit options.
Why Attend?
• For Buyers: Discover off-market, cash-flowing businesses and connect with trusted deal partners.
• For Sellers: Meet serious, funded buyers and learn how to prepare for a successful exit.
• For Lenders & Advisors: Build relationships with clients actively pursuing acquisitions or exits.
What to Expect
This is not a lecture or pitch-fest—just real conversations, deal flow, and meaningful connections.
As the group grows, we’ll host panels, guest speakers, and case study spotlights in addition to networking.
