"The Texas Capital Connection attracts the nation's leading sources of private equity and debt capital. We're strong supporters of the event, and the relationships it fosters," says David Mahmood, Chairman and Founder of Allegiance Capital.

This year Mahmood's firm has facilitated more than $500 million in transactions with private equity groups and strategic acquirers on behalf of its clients, primarily business owners of private mid-market companies.

According to a Mergermarket report released in October, mergers and acquisitions in Texas were up by 76 percent in the first three quarters of 2010 over the same period in 2009.  Mahmood sees the upward trend continuing both in Texas and nationwide.

"Private equity groups are laden with capital (about $500 billion) and are eager to put it to work yielding returns. Business owners are actually going to enjoy a seller's market in 2011," he says.
