Woodbury, NY - September 17, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) The PIPEs Conference has been the most important and influential event in the Small Cap deal market for the past 10 years. This year the event will be held at The Westin Times Square on November 4th.

A decade ago when when DealFlow launched The PIPEs Conference we had no idea how influential this event would become. Although the markets have changed, the event has stayed true to its original goal - to provide an unparalleled forum for education and networking. This year the event returns to its roots in New York City to celebrate The 10th Annual PIPEs Conference.

A DealFlow Event in Association with The Deal:

The DealFlow Report has recently been incorporated into The Street's institutional platform, The Deal. The Deal provides subscribers with world-class coverage of large and mid-cap M&A transactions and small cap finance transactions. The event will be marketed to The Deal's extensive network of personal and institutional investors worldwide, which provides an opportunity to network with a completely new group of market players.

This year's event will feature all of the topics of importance to professionals in the small-cap equity market. The agenda will cover more than just direct investments and PIPEs. It will include sessions on reverse mergers and SPACs, stock trading issues, legal issues, and the latest funding structures. Ample time will also be given to discuss how technology is changing the market, including the migration from traditional brokerage businesses to online funding portals, and what the new regulatory landscape means for issuers, investors, and intermediaries. Specific agenda topics include:

• The Recent Resurgence of PIPE Deals: Who's Transacting, Under What Terms, and a Discussion on Sustainability
• SPACs: The 2013/2014 Environment for Launching Special Purpose Acquisition Companies
• Reverse Mergers: New Deal Structures to Avoid Shell Status, Examining the Recent Crop of Companies and what's made some of them Successful
