Why Debt Connection Events Stand Out
Curated by Industry Veteran: With Mark Naiman leading the charge, these events reflect decades of ARM experience and strategic vision.
Diverse Learning Formats: Attendees engage through a combination of large plenaries, regulator Q&A, โFast Trackโ idea sessions, and moderated roundtables (e.g. Great Debate).
High-Level Networking & Exhibits: Debt Connection events connect buyers, vendors, attorneys, agencies and creditors under one roof, driving collaboration and deal-making.
City-Level Experience: DCS events combine ABMโstyle education with hospitalityโoffering exceptional venues and onsite experiences (e.g. four-, five-star locations like Four Seasons New Orleans).
