​South Florida ETA & SMB Happy Hour

​South Florida — we’re back.

​Search Fund Coalition is bringing the ETA & SMB community together for another electric evening of conversations and connections. Whether you’re a Searcher, investor, operator, or advisor—this is your place to meet like-minded folks who actually get it.

​No speeches, no slide decks this time —just real conversations over drinks, good ibes, and great people. From first-time Searchers to seasoned deal pros, we’re here to connect South Florida’s growing ETA ecosystem.

​Come grab a drink, share your search story, and meet the people who just might help you close your next deal.
