NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — Nov. 13, 2026 — (KOREWIRE) — GMIQ today named SuperCrowd.tv the exclusive digital media partner and sponsor for America’s 250th: Financial Excellence & the American Dream — A Getting Deals Done Summit. Presented by GMIQ and Alberto Lino of Optimum Financial Group, the December 10 summit will bring together entrepreneurs, investors and banking leaders in Newport Beach, California. Viewers worldwide can watch live on SuperCrowd.tv via Roku, Fire TV, Google TV and the web.
“How do we build wealth from the bottom up?” said Patrick A. Howell, CEO of GMIQ and executive director of the summit. “As America marks its 250th anniversary, we’re asking an ambitious question. Can America create a million millionaires in 2027? I want entrepreneurs, bankers and investors in the same room talking about what it would take to open more doors to capital and ownership, spark the American imagination around universal prosperity.”
Chris Gardner, author of The Pursuit of Happyness, will deliver the keynote and help honor Dan McClory, founder and CEO of Boustead & Company Limited. Keith Moore, the company’s executive chairman and McClory’s longtime friend and former Eastern Michigan University classmate, will present the Gary E. Bryant Lifetime Legacy Achievement Award in recognition of McClory’s work helping businesses access capital.
“These conversations about entrepreneurship, opportunity and building wealth deserve an audience far beyond the room,” said Devin D. Thorpe, founder and CEO of The Super Crowd, Inc. “Prosperity is a universal idea. Abundance belongs to all of us.”
Thorpe will also join a panel on banking, bringing his perspective on how crowdfunding can expand access to capital. The partnership builds on Thorpe’s contribution to the afterword of Howell’s memoir, Getting Deals Done, which helped inspire the summit.
Tim Loughlin, a commercial finance executive and former managing director in global asset-based finance at Merrill Lynch, and Daniel K. Donahue, a corporate and securities attorney and shareholder in Greenberg Traurig LLP’s Newport Beach office, have been key partners in past programs honoring Gary E. Bryant. The summit carries forward Bryant’s entrepreneurial spirit and his belief that more businesses should have the opportunity to raise capital and grow.
David Cunningham’s Little Dinosaur Productions will manage the livestream. Christian Wagari of Wagari International Film Productions will serve as chief media officer, overseeing event photography and directing new episodes of the Getting Deals Done podcast. Brian Schreiber, CEO of Spark, will serve as the summit’s chief communications officer.
