​Boston ETA & SMB Summer Happy Hour

​Boston, we’re coming in hot.

​Search Fund Coalition is hosting a summer happy hour for the local ETA and SMB crowd—and we’re keeping it real. No speeches. No slide decks. Just strong drinks, sharp minds, and conversations that actually matter.

​If you’re a Searcher, investor, operator, or somewhere in between, this is your chance to meet the people behind the deals. Whether you're deep in diligence or just starting to sketch your thesis, there’s something powerful about being in a room full of people who get it.

​We’ve seen firsthand what happens when this community comes together—and Boston’s ready. Come through, bring a friend, and let’s make this ecosystem a little more connected.
