## At a Glance

- Club: An ETA Club gathering students, alumni, investors and owners around lower-middle-market deals.
- Money: The Zell Entrepreneurs program runs an Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition track for second-year MBA students searching for a company to buy or lead, one of its two named tracks alongside a venture track. The program publishes funding of up to $10,000, which its own page describes as money to invest in a new venture rather than in a search, so read the amount as the program's rather than the track's.
- Conference: An annual conference, hosted by the ETA Club itself.
