SG Analytics, a Straive company, is proud to sponsor the 2026 Midwest Capital Connection, one of the leading gatherings for middle-market M&A professionals in the Midwest.

Taking place October 7-8 at Navy Pier in Chicago, the event brings together investment banks, private equity outsourcing firms, capital providers, advisors, entrepreneurs, and service providers focused on middle-market M&A and profitable business growth. With more than 100 investment banks expected to attend, the conference creates a focused environment for building relationships and identifying new deal opportunities.

As deal teams manage growing volumes of information, tighter timelines, and greater expectations around execution, SG Analytics helps firms combine domain expertise, scalable research capacity, and AI-enabled workflows to move from opportunity to decision with greater speed and consistency.

Meet Steve to discuss how SG Analytics can extend your deal team across research, analytics, financial analysis, and AI-enabled execution, helping internal teams focus more time on judgment, relationships, and transaction strategy.

Why Connect with SG Analytics?

What Sets Us Apart

  • End-to-end deal support: Research and analytical support across origination, screening, diligence, transaction execution, and portfolio monitoring.
  • Capital Markets expertise: Dedicated professionals who understand the workflows, timelines, and quality expectations of investment banks and private capital firms.
  • Scalable execution capacity: Flexible support designed to help deal teams manage changing pipelines and peak workloads without continuously expanding internal teams.
  • AI-enabled delivery: AI-powered workflows combined with expert validation to accelerate research and execution while keeping experienced professionals at the center of critical decisions.

Where Deal Expertise Meets AI-Enabled Execution

Deal professionals spend significant time gathering information, reviewing documents, preparing materials, and converting fragmented data into decision-ready insights.

SG Analytics brings AI together with Capital Markets expertise to help transform these workflows.

Through AI Deal Studio, investment banking, private equity, and transaction advisory teams can accelerate research and deal execution while experienced associates provide the validation and context required for high-stakes work. The model is designed to increase execution capacity, improve consistency, and allow deal professionals to spend more time on analysis, judgment, and client engagement.

Supporting the Deal Lifecycle

Whether your team is assessing a new market, screening potential targets, preparing transaction materials, supporting diligence, or monitoring portfolio performance, SG Analytics provides the additional research and analytical capacity needed to keep work moving.

Our objective is simple: help deal professionals spend less time on repetitive execution and more time on the decisions and relationships that move transactions forward.
