This event will also provide an inside look at our GrowFL CEO Nexus Roundtable program, revealing how they work and inviting you to explore the possibility of joining this exclusive community of leaders. This program is designed to help CEOs of growth-oriented, second-stage businesses accelerate revenue growth, reduce company-specific risk, and increase the intrinsic value of their business.

The GrowFL CEO Nexus Roundtable program is designed to help CEOs of growth-oriented, second-stage businesses accelerate revenue growth, reduce company-specific risk, and increase the intrinsic value of their business. The program is founded on the principles of peer-to-peer learning and is designed to help owners and executive team members navigate their Ownership Journey.

Key Elements of the Program:

Peer-to-peer learning: CEOs gain invaluable insights from a confidential collective of non-competing peers. The diversity of industries and backgrounds enriches the learning experience, as each member brings unique perspectives and solutions to common challenges.

Structured format: The roundtables are led by trained facilitators who ensure balanced group discussion and emphasize sharing experiences rather than giving advice.
Confidential environment: Participants can discuss sensitive issues—both in their business and personal lives—without fear of competition.

Benefits of Participating:

  • Enhanced leadership skills: CEOs gain valuable insights into leadership, decision-making, and strategic planning.
  • Expanded network: Connect with a network of experienced and successful CEOs from diverse industries.
  • Increased confidence: Gain support and encouragement from peers facing similar challenges.
  • Improved business performance: Learn new strategies and tools to drive growth and profitability.

The program is designed for CEOs of growth-oriented, second-stage businesses with annual revenues between $1 million and $50 million.
