The Deal Table: 2025 in the Trenches by Search Fund Coalition

*** Registration required for attendance: https://luma.com/SFC1225 *** The ETA landscape didn’t sit still this year. Deals tightened. Lender behavior shifted. Diligence patterns repeated. And Searchers were forced to rethink funnels, outreach, and expectations as the ground moved beneath their feet. Our final session of 2025 is going straight into those realities. We’re bringing together , ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌ & ^redacted‌ - who sat at the deal table all year long. They saw which deals actually closed, which ones consistently collapsed, and what habits separated steady Searches from stalled ones. If you’re a Searcher, operator, investor, or advisor, this is the conversation that connects the dots between “What just happened this year?” and “How do we adjust for what’s coming next?” It’s the part of ETA that rarely gets this level of honest airtime, but absolutely shapes how you enter 2026. *** Registration required for attendance: https://luma.com/SFC1225 ***
