Alternative Finance Conference in Toronto

On October 4th and 5th, I had the opportunity to contribute as a panelist at DealFlow Media's Alternative Finance Conference. The Alternative Finance Conference took place at the Fairmont Royal York in Toronto. Speakers at the conference included representatives from national law firms, the TSX venture exchange, financial specialists, charter accountants, and many other professionals specializing in alternative finance.

The discussions that took place at the conference were deeply informative and included topics as diverse as:
  • Listing on the TSX Venture Exchange
  • Assessing Asian capital through dual listing on the Hong Kong Exchange
  • How the JOBS Act will affect capital raising for small companies
  • Structured debt financing for Private & Public Canadian companies 
  • Fundamental acquisitions of Foreign properties by TSXV issuers utilizing special warrant financings
I personally discussed Alternative IPO's & Reverse Takeovers with three other panelists.

DealFlow media put together a great event and I was happy to take part.
