Finding compelling innovation-led investment opportunities in
U.S. small-cap stocks will be the theme of the 2024 Emerald Asset
Management Groundhog Day Investment Forum, coming up on Thursday,
February 1st at The Valley Forge Sheraton – and online as an
all-event virtual stream. Emerald’s team of analysts and portfolio
managers will focus on sector- and industry- specific opportunities
as they introduce an exclusive new whitepaper on the Innovation
Economy.
The Forum will feature interactive sessions providing a
deep-dive into the compelling innovation-themed investment
opportunities as identified by our team:
- Introduction of the Innovation Starts Small whitepaper with
Emerald’s full team of portfolio managers;
- Innovation in Life Sciences panel discussion with Emerald’s
Life Sciences research team and featuring a presentation by
TransMedics Group (TMDX – NASDAQ);
- Innovation in Consumer Goods panel discussion with Emerald’s
Consumer research team and featuring a presentation by Freshpet Inc
(FRPT – NASDAQ);
- Innovation in Technology panel discussion focusing on the rise
of artificial intelligence and the highlights of the 2024 Consumer
Electronics Show with Emerald’s Tech Team;
- Ask the Analysts panel with Emerald’s full team of investment
professionals.
This year’s event will include a keynote address by innovative
entrepreneur and author Michael Moe, Founder and CEO of GSV, a
growth-focused investment platform. Pennsylvania Treasurer Stacy
Garrity will welcome attendees to the event.
“Investors were myopically focused on the ‘Magnificent Seven’
stocks in 2023,” said Emerald CEO Scott L. Rehr. “But at Emerald,
we believe that ‘Innovation Starts Small,’ as we work to identify
and invest in smaller growth-oriented U.S. companies that fuel
exciting innovation in sectors like healthcare, technology,
consumer goods and fintech,” he said.
“We say that the investment year begins in earnest with our
annual Forum centered around our local Pennsylvania tradition of
Groundhog Day,” said Emerald Director of Research Joseph W. Garner.
“This year our presenters will give our in-person and online
audience real-time perspective and insight as they zero in on the
innovation that drives our economy,” he said.
The event’s schedule, list of presenters and registration
details are available on Emerald’s website at

The first Emerald Groundhog Day Investment Forum was held in
1994 and has grown to become a definitive kick-off conference each
year for investors focusing on domestic U.S. growth companies.
