MelCap Directors and Principals to be Honored as Emerging Leaders by M&A Advisors

Three MelCap Directors and Principals will be Recognized for M&A Leadership at the 2025 Leadership in Dealmaking Summit

We are proud to announce that Dan Bowman, Evan Lyons, and Anthony Melchiorre, all MelCap Principals and Directors, will be honored at this year’s 16th Annual Emerging Leaders Awards Gala Celebration. The Gala will be held at the 2025 Leadership in Dealmaking Summit, the seminal M&A Advisors event, taking place Sept. 15-16 in New York City.

In a field where strategic insight and trusted networks define long-term success, this year’s award recipients are doing more than making deals — they’re redefining M&A leadership.

16th Annual Emerging Leaders Awards

“These professionals have not only risen to today’s challenges, but are actively shaping tomorrow’s opportunities,” said Roger Aguinaldo, Founder and CEO of The M&A Advisor. “They join a global community of peers making a lasting impact on the industry.”

Award winners were selected by an independent judging panel for their innovation, leadership, and community contribution. MelCap is truly honored to be included in this gathering of industry leaders, past honorees, and new voices driving meaningful change.

Celebrating Leadership in M&A

The 2025 Leadership in Dealmaking Summit will feature talks from today’s most influential business leaders, thought leadership sessions, networking opportunities, and awards galas that recognize outstanding deals, firms, and professionals in M&A.

We look forward to sharing insights, cultivating business connections, and learning from fellow M&A, restructuring, and financing professionals at the Summit. We hope you’ll be joining us as we celebrate Dan, Evan, and Anthony at the Gala Celebration!
