  • “I have both presented at, and been a sponsor of Gridley’s January conference and have worked with Linda and known her for over five years. She puts a lot of energy into her relationships and ‘work products’, be it transaction advice, their quarterly newsletters and frequent industry overviews, and/or their events.  All are done with deep domain knowledge of the information services industries and a high sense of quality and integrity. As both an investor and entrepreneur, I appreciate that approach.”

    George Bell, President and CEO, Jumptap

It is a tremendous networking opportunity for us with leading private company CEOs  and public company buyers across the information services industry.  The presentations and panelists are always informative and topical and Linda puts a lot of personal efforts into making it a customized event for the attendees.”

    David Yuan, Principal, Technology Crossover Ventures

  • “I’ve attended Gridley’s January Conference and Summer Golf Outing for many years.  They are always high quality and incredibly personalized.

Gridley’s January conference has become the ‘go to’ event as a way for everyone to kick off the New Year.”

    Ellen B. Marshall, Market Executive, Capital One Bank

  • “I find Gridley & Company’s focus on the intersection of media, marketing, technology and the internet to be relatively unique amongst the boutique advisors, providing them with value-added insight into early trends affecting those markets.  Their January conference is a great way for me to kick off the year through a combination of terrific networking and insightful presentations.”

Gridley’s 12th Annual Marketing, Internet, Financial Technology, Outsourcing Services Conference

(Invitation Only)

Download Linda Gridley’s Conference Breakfast Presentation

The Gridley Conference is the way that over 500 senior executives, lenders and investors across the information services landscape kick-off their year. Attendees come to this “invitation only” event from all around the country to listen to leading private company presentations and relevant industry panels to uncover exciting new trends and investment opportunities across our targeted industry sectors. As with the past few years, our 2013 event will have a particular focus on “All Things Digital”: Advertising, Content, Ecommerce, Mobile, Payments, Social and more! In addition, this year’s Conference will feature a “Digital NYC” Presentation Track where we will highlight a lot of the hot upcoming companies in the Big Apple. Finally, this year’s event will include presentations and panels on other exciting topics such as Marketing Automation, the Changing POS/Shopper Marketing Experience, and SMB Services.

The Gridley Conference is unique. Most conferences hosted by other investment banks feature public companies presenting to an audience consisting primarily of institutional investors. And, industry trade shows are more “mass” audience focused events with the typical attendees being there for sales and marketing purposes. The Gridley Conference differentiates itself as a more senior, personalized event where CEOs of private companies can network with senior executives from public companies and private equity decision makers. Some like to refer to the Conference as “M&A Shopping on Steroids”.
