Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 2024 Southern Regional Networking Event and Pickleball Outing in Houston! With a fantastic turnout and perfect weather, new and seasoned pickleball players alike enjoyed an afternoon of friendly competition, networking, and engaging discussions.   A special thanks to our hosts, Simon Haidamous and Curtis Hartman of Genesis Park, for making this gathering such a memorable one. Their hospitality set the stage for meaningful connections among General Partners, Limited Partners, and Investment Bankers.   The pickleball courts were alive with laughter, new connections, and some great play! For those new to the sport, it was a perfect introduction, and we’re thrilled that so many of you gave it a try.   We also want to extend our gratitude to Hogan Lovells, our event sponsor, for their continued support and commitment to fostering these valuable industry connections.   Thank you all for making this event a success. We look forward to seeing you at our next SBIA regional networking event! #pickleballnetworking #lowermiddlemarket #smallbusinessinvesting #smallbusinessmatters #PE #institutionalinvesting #investmentbanking #dealmaking
