Dear ACG Conference Attendee,
On behalf of the Association for Corporate Growth – Los Angeles Chapter, we’d like to welcome you to the 16th Annual ACG LA Business Conference. We are honored to have you in attendance. We are excited to present an impressive roster of speakers, featuring President Bill Clinton as well as a number of well-respected industry CEOs. This year’s central conference theme focuses on opportunities and possibilities as we proactively navigate a fragile economic environment.
Our keynotes and panels will discuss the current business landscape, deliver insightful remarks and viewpoints on the state of M&A, and explore economic and world issues. Our breakout sessions, led by our Gold Sponsors, will focus on three industry verticals; healthcare, branded consumer products and aerospace & defense.
In addition, the ACG LA Conference holds two of the nation’s most dynamic deal flow events - Capital Connection and Deal Source. These are must-attend events for the deal community and we highly encourage you to explore the various business opportunities that await at these events. Capital Connection has more than 100 exhibiting capital providers, and for the first time in the history of our Conference, we have a sold out Deal Source event.

PRESIDENT BILL CLINTONFounder of The William J. Clinton Foundation; 42nd President of the United States of America
William Jefferson Clinton was the first Democratic president in six decades to be elected twice – first in 1992 and then in 1996. Under his leadership, the country enjoyed the strongest economy in a generation and the longest economic expansion in U.S. history, including the creation of more than 22 million jobs.
After leaving the White House, President Clinton established the William J. Clinton Foundation with the mission to strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence.
Today the Foundation has staff and volunteers around the world working to improve lives through several initiatives, including:
• The Clinton Global Initiative: The mission of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) is to inspire, connect, and empower a community of global leaders to forge solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. By fostering partnerships, providing strategic advice, and driving resources toward effective ideas, CGI helps its members - organizations from the private sector, public sector, and civil society - maximize their efforts to alleviate poverty, create a cleaner environment, and increase access to health care and education.
• The Clinton Health Access Initiative (formerly the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative): The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to strengthening integrated
health systems in the developing world and expanding access to care and treatment for HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis. CHAI’s solution-oriented approach focuses on improving market dynamics for medicines and diagnostics; lowering prices for treatment; accelerating access to life-saving technologies; and helping governments build the capacity required for high-quality care and treatment programs.
• Other initiatives such as: The Clinton Climate Initiative, The Clinton Development Initiative, and The Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative -- are applying a business-oriented approach worldwide to fight climate change and develop sustainable economic growth in Africa and Latin America.
In addition to his Foundation work, President Clinton has joined with former President George H.W. Bush three times – after the 2004 tsunami in South Asia, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and Hurricane Ike in 2008 – to help raise money for recovery efforts and served as the U.N. Envoy for Tsunami Recovery.
Building on his longstanding commitment to Haiti as President and through his Foundation, President Clinton was named U.N. Special Envoy for Haiti in 2009 to assist the government and the people of Haiti as they “build back better” after a series of hurricanes battered the country in 2008. Following the devastating earthquake, President Clinton dedicated Clinton Foundation resources to help with immediate and long term relief and assistance, and at the request of President Obama, joined with President George W. Bush to establish the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, which supports highly effective organizations on the ground in long- term rebuilding efforts. Additionally, President Clinton serves as co-chair of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission with Prime Minister Bellerive.
President Clinton’s Bestselling Books Include:
• My Life is the strikingly candid portrait of a global leader who decided early in life to devote his intellectual and political gifts to serving the public. It is the fullest, most concretely detailed, most nuanced account of a presidency ever written, and a testament to the positive impact his work and his ideals have had on America and the world.
• Back to Work: Why We Need Smart Government for a Strong Economy details how we can get out of the current economic crisis and lay a foundation for long-term prosperity. He offers specific recommendations on how we can put people back to work and create new businesses, increase bank lending and corporate investment, double our exports, and restore our manufacturing base.
• GIVING: How Each of Us Can Change the World, provides a robust look at how individual endeavors can save lives and solve problems, and it offers compelling examples of both citizen and corporate activism at work in the world today.

2013 ACG LOS ANGELESW O M E N ’ S F O R U M
Ilana Edelstein was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa during apartheid. Her parents, one of whom was an Auschwitz survivor, died when she was just 18. Feeling she had no future in South Africa, she left for New York arriving in 1979 with nothing more than $200 in her pocket and a suitcase. Ms. Edelstein continued on to Los Angeles reuniting with her only remaining family. There, she landed on the doorstep of legendary Hollywood publicist, Norman Winter, who agreed to sponsor her in securing a green card and permanent US residency in exchange for becoming his personal assistant.
After a five year stint with Mr. Winter, she moved on to work for her brother-in-law’s fledgling office supply company in LA where she launched their commercial division, building relationships and supplying major accounts, including the movie studios. Feeling the entrepreneur’s call, Ilana went on to get licensed and became a financial advisor to teachers. She established herself by building their retirement accounts, eventually starting her company, IE Financial Services, now in its 21st year.
To help market her new venture, she became a senior associate with Teachers Financial Services in 2003. In this capacity, she conducts in-school workshop presentations for all employees, to educate and advise them on their retirement and savings benefit packages, then guides them in risk-free no-charge investments. She currently has hundreds of long standing clients, positioned to consummate secure and dignified retirements.
In 1988 Ilana met and fell in love with Mr. Martin Crowley, and soon thereafter the world’s number one selling ultra premium tequila was born. This is her story of their love child, Patrón. An unsung heroine in building the brand that changed the face of the liquor industry, was involved every step of the way, from the ingenious and unprecedented marketing strategies to each complex detail of its finance and operations. Patrón and the lifestyle associated with the brand became synonymous with Ilana and Martin and the powerful connection they shared.
