What Our Members Are Saying

“I joined Opus Connect in October 2017 and have found the organization well run with a strong member base of middle market professionals who have become friends and referral sources. Through a member referral, Modern Bank closed a financing transaction in March 2018.”

Carl M. Tiu, Modern Bank N.ANew York City Private Equity Chapter

“I’ve made several relationships just through general meetings with other lenders, and what I found great is that we’ve been able to be mutual referral sources back to each other. Even when we have a client who doesn’t fit into our portfolio, we know someone who can help them. We’ve received numerous direct and indirect business referrals and prospects through Opus Connect.”

David Ellis, GemCap SolutionsLos Angeles Private Equity Chapter

“I became a member of Opus Connect and the Opus Young Leaders chapter in 2014, which has proven to be a valuable investment. Through Opus, I have been introduced to a number of referral sources that have generate actionable opportunities for my firm. I credit the Opus network for meaningful introductions and relevant topic discussions. ”

Michelle Garrett, OFS CapitalLos Angeles Private Equity/Young Leaders Chapter

“If you’re serious about being involved in M&A, then you need to be part of Opus Connect.”

JR Matthews, Tregaron Capital CompanyLos Angeles Private Equity Chapter

“On September 13th, 2018, I attended a great Real Estate panel on the Opportunity Zone and Opportunity Zone Funds in particular at OPUS. I had spent months researching this as an investment strategy for my company and investors, and this panel solidified my desire to proceed with a fund by confirming my understanding of its advantages. In fact, I teamed up with one of the panelists to launch the fund together. Great topics and people at OPUS!”
