LA Times Studios is excited to announce the 2026 Private Equity and M&A Visionaries nomination opportunity. We invite professionals and organizations that provide funding, strategic guidance, or advisory services to companies involved in mergers, acquisitions, and private equity transactions to nominate private equity investors, bankers, and lenders, as well as professional services advisors – such as lawyers, accountants, and business managers – who focus on the private equity and M&A sectors.
Nominees must be based in California, and up to three individuals from the same firm may be nominated. The LA Times Studios executive committee will select honorees based on the following criteria:
- Noteworthy successes and accomplishments during the last 12-24 months
- Consistent demonstration of strong leadership throughout the span of his/her career
- Long- and short-term impact he/she has made to their organization’s and/or the industry’s growth
- Community involvement and board memberships that showcase the nominee’s leadership beyond their organization
Individuals selected will be notified of their inclusion approximately 45 days prior to publication. The visionaries will be announced in our August 2026 Business by LA Times Studios magazine distributed with the Los Angeles Times newspaper.
There is no cost to nominate; however, due to limited space in the publication, we will only profile three people from each company.
