"From lower middle market to multi-billion dollar deals, we are recognizing the leading transactions, firms and individuals that represent the highest levels of performance."
This year, a record of 423 nominees, representing over 600 companies, became finalists for the awards. An independent judging committee of 16 top M&A, Restructuring and Finance industry experts determined the ultimate recipients of the awards which were revealed "Academy-Award style" at the gala. The 11th Annual Awards Gala honored the leading deal-teams, firms and deal-makers whose activities set the standard for M&A transactions.
John Poythress, the Generational Capital Markets Managing Director representing IM Solutions stated, "To be recognized like this is quite an honor.
