Allison Maslan
Topic: “Building a Founder-Independent Enterprise for Maximum Acquisition Value”
Strategic exits don’t happen by accident — they’re engineered through intentional system design & scalable operations. If your company still depends on your daily involvement, you’re not just limiting your growth, you’re significantly reducing your acquisition value.
In this high-impact session, Allison Maslan — CEO of Pinnacle Global Network®, founder of 10 successful companies, and WSJ Best-Selling Author of “Scale or Fail” — will reveal the blueprint for building a company that attracts premium acquisition offers.

Ryan Tansom
Topic: Independence by Design™ – The Owner’s Playbook for Time, Cash Flow, and Wealth
Ryan’s journey began in his family’s $21 million business, where he helped turnaround a $1M annual loss into an 8-figure sale. While the exit was financially successful, it also came with hard lessons — massive taxes, team losses, and a realization that most owners don’t have a clear framework for aligning their business with their personal and financial goals.
Since then, he’s worked with thousands of business owners to generate time freedom, sustainable cash flow, and long-term wealth.
