Farris is proud to announce that Senior Associate Megan Wood has been awarded the ‘Rising Stars Award’ for 2023 by the Association for Corporate Growth. ACG British Columbia is a local organization of dealmakers whose purpose is to help middle market businesses grow and prosper. This is the inaugural year in which ACG is presenting this award, which recognizes the contributions of emerging leaders in the Vancouver deal community who have contributed to the prosperity of BC middle market companies through dealmaking.

Bo Rothstein, Farris’ Managing Partner stated: “ACG is a leading dealmaking organization in the Province. We have long been heavily involved and a strong supporter of ACG. We are delighted that one of our talented associates has received this recognition.”

Megan focuses her legal practice on mid-market private M&A deals, principally in the hospitality and beverage industries, including the BC wine industry in the Okanagan and on Vancouver Island. Megan prides herself on getting deals done: “I am privileged to have the opportunity to work daily with the incredible community of British Columbia dealmakers, particularly with those of my own generation, many of whom are equally deserving of this award.”
