Pulse Check — Interest in an industry-stratified CEO event?

Hey all,

I've been having some conversations with folks in the SMB and PE space and wanted to get a broader read from this group.

There are already some great events out there—SMBash, HoldCoConf, Think Outside, etc.—but a theme that keeps coming up is the potential value of something more stratified by industry and company size, specifically for current CEOs.

The idea is to create a setting where CEOs and investors connect with others operating at a similar scale and within comparable sectors—leading to more focused, actionable conversations and relationships.

For those of you running or investing in small businesses:

• Does this concept resonate?
• Do you feel that gap at existing events?
• What would make something like this worth attending?
  
  Would appreciate any thoughts as we continue gathering feedback.
