The 2026 TechGC Liquidity Summit is a premier conference scheduled for February 3-4, 2026, in New York City. Hosted by the L Suite, this event convenes General Counsels from venture-backed startups, private equity-owned companies, funds, portfolio companies, and public companies to explore exit strategies through mergers and acquisitions (M&A) or initial public offerings (IPOs).
Key topics at the summit include legal considerations for late-stage companies evaluating IPO and M&A outcomes, as well as navigating M&A in uncertain markets with complex capital structures. Notably, Mark Mushkin and David Schwartz will lead a pre-conference workshop titled "IPO, M&A or Wait: Late-Stage Exit Decisions," focusing on these critical areas. Additionally, David Schwartz will facilitate a roundtable discussion titled "Buy-Side: M&A in 2026 - Uncertain Markets and Complex Capital Structures."
The summit offers ample networking opportunities, allowing attendees to connect with peers, industry leaders, and experts in the field. Participants can engage in interactive sessions, workshops, and discussions designed to provide actionable insights and strategies for navigating liquidity events in a transforming market.
