ACG Utah's 2008-2009 monthly breakfast series is entitled "C3: Company Colleagues Capital". You'll learn from leaders and top executives from within 
Utah about a transaction that effected the development of their organizations, the company involved, the colleagues involved and the capital to make
the deal happen. In addition to hearing war stories about acquisitions and financings, other types of critical deals, including distribution arrangements,
outsourcing, creative marketing and key executive recruitments, will be spotlighted.
ACG Utah is recognized as one of the fastest growing chapters nationally and is generally comprised of business professionals, private equity and 
established mid-market companies with revenues between $10 and $500 million that are interested in more effectively accelerating the growth and
