ROTH Capital Partners, a relationship-driven investment bank focused on serving emerging growth companies and their investors, will host its 30th Annual Growth Stock Conference March 11-14, 2018, at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel.
ROTH’s flagship four-day investment conference brings together executives from more than 500 public and private companies and approximately 1,000 investors. The event provides attendees with investment ideas across a variety of sectors, including Business Services, Consumer, Cannabis, Cleantech & Industrial Growth, Energy, Healthcare, Health & Wellness, Oil & Gas, Mining, and Technology & Media. Company presentations, Q&A sessions, panels, and one-on-one meetings offer investor clients opportunities for extensive interaction with executive management to gain in-depth insights into each business and sector.
“The ROTH Conference provides participants with a unique opportunity to gain insight into emerging growth companies across a variety of sectors, while also enjoying themselves in a beautiful setting. This is our flagship conference, and we look forward to this event each year,” said Byron Roth, Chairman & CEO of ROTH.
The conference will formally commence with two plenary presentations – keynote featuring Dan Goldin, the former head of NASA, discussing the application of Artificial Intelligence, and a panel presenting an overview of blockchain technology and its use with cryptocurrency and other financial applications.
As in prior years, ROTH’s research and banking teams have assembled a number panels designed to educate and promote sector-specific discussions during the Monday and Tuesday sessions.
- Cleantech Investing
- Millennial Parent Survey
- Oil & Gas
- Building your Brand
- IPO Readiness
- Reg A+
- Cannabis Policy, Investment & Leadership
- Family Office
- Craft Beer
- Power of Marketing
We are adding a morning session on Wednesday this year, to stimulate broader discussions on current topical issues, including:
- Interpreting Macroeconomic and Thematic Trends
- ETFs and Small Cap Stocks
- Broadband Wireless Capacity
- Retail Stores in Today’s World
- Block Chain technology
- Advancements in Healthcare
Additionally, the charitable aspect of the event continues to grow again this year. On Saturday night, March 10th, the Roth brothers will receive the Athletes First Classic Golden Heart Award benefitting the Orangewood Foundation. The Athletes First Classic has helped raise millions of dollars for abused and neglected children as they transition through their teen and young adult years. ROTH is proud to partner with Athletes First during Sunday’s golf, tailgate and evening concert.
For the seventh year in a row, ROTH is featuring physical activities (bike, spin, tennis, and yoga) on Social Sunday to support Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). CAF supports people with physical challenges by providing the opportunity and access to sports and physical activity. The funds raised support individual grants for sports expenses not covered by insurance, such as adaptive sports equipment (e.g. prosthetic running feet, handcycles, sport wheelchairs, coaching, mentoring and competition travel). “With the generous help of our clients, over $930,000 has been raised to support CAF, a cause that our brother, Duane, was very passionate about. We are hoping to top the $1 million level at this year’s conference.” said Ted Roth, President and Head of Investment Banking at ROTH.
