2015 Marcum MicroCap Conference Expands to Two Days; Focus on Early Stage Companies Added

New York City, NY – To accommodate investor interest and provide a showcase for early stage growth companies, the annual Marcum MicroCap Conference this year is being expanded to include an additional day dedicated exclusively to highly vetted nanocap and pre-IPO enterprises. These companies will be highlighted on Day One, followed by presentations from more mature publicly traded microcap companies on Day Two.

The 2015 Marcum MicroCap Conference is presented by the SEC Services Practice of Marcum LLP, a top national accounting and advisory services firm. The conference will be held May 27-28 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York City.

“The annual Marcum MicroCap Conference has been fully subscribed since we launched it in 2012, with more than 125 companies presenting last year. The market of 2014 revived investor demand for early stage opportunities, and we are responding by providing a platform to showcase some of the most promising emerging growth companies out there today, ” said David C. Bukzin, Partner-in-Charge of Marcum’s SEC Practice Group.

The annual Marcum MicroCap Conference introduces investors to superior, undiscovered companies with under $500 million in market capitalization. Since its inception, it has grown to become a cornerstone event for the microcap market, featuring presentations by CEOs and CFOs from breakthrough high-growth companies, top picks by leading small cap analysts, and insightful commentary on successful investment strategies and sectors. Featured companies represent six industry sectors, including Technology, Media & Internet; Software & Business Services; Life Science & Healthcare; Retail & Consumer Products; Energy & Natural Resources; and Industrials. The conference additionally includes a full agenda of panel discussions on issues of strategic importance to small cap issuers and investors.
