BOSTON, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Canaccord Genuity is pleased to announce the line-up for its 30th Annual Growth Conference, a premier investment forum for innovative small and mid-cap growth companies from the US, Canada, and the UK.

At the conference, institutional and private investors, as well as venture capitalists, are provided with the opportunity to speak directly with the management teams of over 300 public and private companies.

"For thirty years investors have gained valuable insight into growth companies and have benefitted from investment opportunities from our Growth Conference," noted Paul Reynolds, President and CEO of Canaccord Financial Inc. "The popularity of the conference is testament to the quality and range of companies showcased at the event. It is an important forum for many emerging businesses and the investors who see potential in their growth."
