Making the decision to borrow against RMR to fund growth can be overwhelming. This panel discussion will walk you through the process from the entrepreneur’s initial interest in obtaining funding to the lender and the professionals along the way. Although there are many unknows for first time borrowers, the initial investment, strengthening of the management team, and partnership with an industry lender allows for sustainable and rapid growth.

This growth can be unattainable without leverage. It is not only access to capital that allows for growth. The borrowing process and integration of acquisitions requires management teams to focus on the future, learn new skills, build new relationships, communicate effectively, and develop trust. This session will allow you to ask questions of the lender, the entrepreneur, and a consultant that assists first time borrowers throughout the process.

The ESX 2025 General Session is your chance to be inspired and energized as we bring the entire industry together on the Main Stage.

This year’s General Session Speaker is John Smoltz, a first-ballot MLB Hall of Famer, eight-time All Star and National Cy Young Award winner, is FOX MLB’s lead game analyst. In addition to calling the network’s marquee regular season games, Smoltz is in the booth for the All-Star Game and a full slate of postseason matchups which include Division Series, League Championship Series and World Series assignments. Additionally, he serves as a guest analyst for Bally Sports South on select Atlanta Braves games.

Remembered as one of the cornerstone pieces of the Atlanta Braves dynasty that ruled the National League throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Smoltz joined fellow Hall of Famers Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux atop a fearsome starting rotation that helped deliver the Braves 14 division titles, five National League pennants and the 1995 World Series championship. Smoltz owns a lifetime postseason ERA of 2.67, and his 199 career strikeouts and 15 wins rank second all-time in MLB playoff history. The Atlanta Braves retired Smoltz’s jersey in 2012.
