Join us for an exclusive PEF Sydney lunch featuring Benjamin Plummer, Founder and CEO of Dragonfly, as he discusses one of the most powerful founder moves of 2026: the 'Buy, Don't Build' strategy. Instead of starting from scratch, learn how to acquire established, cash-flowing businesses and transform them by integrating advanced AI and elite talent to drive massive efficiency and value.

Drawing from his experience scaling Invisible Technologies to $200M in revenue and working alongside industry titans, Benjamin will share actionable insights on identifying the right acquisition targets, structuring profitable deals, and accessing acquisition capital. This session is designed to move beyond theory, offering a peer-level look at how to use acquisitions to solve business problems rather than create new ones.

This event is a no-pitch, high-value gathering held at MA Financial in Sydney. Attendees will enjoy a provided lunch while engaging in a direct conversation focused on the mechanics of AI-native holding companies and the future of business transformation.
