B2i Digital, Inc. has been named marketing partner for the 152nd Investment Conference hosted by the National Investment Banking Association (NIBA), scheduled for March 11-12, 2026, at The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort in Florida. This partnership aims to expand investor reach for issuers presenting at NIBA's long-running capital markets forum by combining NIBA's in-person program with B2i Digital's investor distribution network.
Since 1982, NIBA has served as a hub for the micro-cap and small-cap investment community, hosting more than 150 investment conferences showcasing public and private companies seeking access to the financial industry. NIBA's network has helped raise over $100 billion in capital, supported by thousands of investment professionals across more than 60 key industry services and over 8,800 registered representatives. The NIBA 152nd Investment Conference is a one-and-a-half day institutional event designed to connect public and private issuers with experienced capital markets professionals, including investors, financing partners, market makers, and advisors.
"Our conferences are designed to give growth companies direct access to capital markets professionals, family offices, fund managers, and strategic advisors," said Emily Foshee, Executive Director of NIBA. "For more than four decades, NIBA has created a focused environment where issuers and investors can build relationships and pursue new opportunities. We welcome B2i Digital's support in broadening the reach of our March conference."
"At B2i Digital, we act as the Capital Markets Matchmaker, connecting companies with investors through digital marketing, conferences, and direct introductions/meetings," said David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital. "By combining NIBA's highly-valued in-person program with our reach and connectivity across the capital markets, we help presenting companies extend their visibility and turn conference participation into lasting investor relationships."
As marketing partner, B2i Digital will support the NIBA 152nd Investment Conference through its Featured Conference program, including targeted email campaigns and distribution to a proprietary network of more than 1.4 million market participants. Presenting companies benefit from extended visibility before, during, and after the conference through B2i Digital's investor-facing distribution channels.

This partnership represents a significant evolution in how investment conferences leverage digital channels to amplify their impact. For business leaders and investors, the collaboration signals a more integrated approach to capital formation, where traditional in-person networking is enhanced by sophisticated digital distribution. The micro-cap and small-cap sectors, which have historically faced challenges in gaining investor attention, stand to benefit from this expanded reach. The combination of NIBA's established conference platform with B2i Digital's marketing capabilities could potentially accelerate capital raising for growth companies while providing investors with broader access to emerging opportunities.
