MEET THE PRODUCER ZACHARY LEZBERG

555 8th Avenue, Suite 909 New York, NY 10018 (212)404-2345 Fax: (212)253-4123 TheSmallBusinessExpo.com Info@TheShowProducers.com

Zachary W. Lezberg, a New York City based producer and entrepreneur, who currently owns and operates theater, film, and live event production company, The Show Producers, has long been passionate about developing unforgettable productions. His 13+ years of industry experience began in 2000, when, as a freshman at the University of Miami, Lezberg launched Quantum Entertainment. A student run film and theater production organization, Quantum Entertainment provides individuals with the coveted opportunity to gain firsthand experience in all aspects of theatrical, film and live event production. At the time of his graduation in 2004, which also saw him honored with the “Most Influential Student on Campus Award,” Lezberg had grown Quantum Entertainment from its founding group of five members to over 800 students. Today, the group is ranked as one of the most popular campus organizations, and has produced a range of popular and well reviewed musical productions, including revivals of The Rocky Horror Show, A Chorus Line, and West Side Story. Upon graduation, Lezberg began work as the Assistant Director of Business Affairs with The Araca Group, a leading Broadway production company that has produced world renowned blockbuster musical hits such as Wicked and Urinetown, as well as numerous other Tony Award winning musicals and plays.

His successful four-year tenure at The Araca Group is also accompanied by an array of other industry experience, including notable turns as a Casting Associate for NBC’s hit television series, Fear Factor, a Production Coordinator for Universal Studios overseeing films and television commercials, and the producer of multiple films, including a winner at the Entertainment Incubator’s Miami Film Festival. Lezberg has also led the influential production company The Show Producers since its founding in 2008. In addition to Broadway theatrical productions, The Show Producers coordinates and operates SMALL BUSINESS EXPO, the largest national B2B tradeshow and networking event for business owners across the country. Small Business Expo is currently in the top US small business cities, including New York City, Dallas, Boston, Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco & Chicago attracting over 50,000 business owners a year.

UBS’ Elevating Entrepreneurs Small Business Mentoring Program

aims to empower under-resourced, high-potential small business owners in Los Angeles region Small business owners are invited to visit VEDC's expo booth and learn about Elevating Entrepreneurs Small Business Mentoring Program, a high-touch, one-on-one small business owners program. Through Elevating Entrepreneurs Small Business Mentoring Program, business owners are paired with a UBS Financial Advisor and UBS client. Together they work to address the business owner's specific needs and help position the small business for future success. The Los Angeles program will begin in late March 2015. Online applications will be available beginning the first week of January 2015 at www.ubs.com/elevatingentrepreneurs.

VEDC Small Business Loans $50,000 to $500,000 VEDC, a leading non-profit lender to small businesses, partnered with UBS to create the Los Angeles Business Opportunity Fund—a lending vehicle providing loans of $50,000 to $500,000 to qualified small businesses. The effort is a component of UBS's Elevating Entrepreneurs program, the firm's flagship philanthropic initiative to provide small businesses with mentorship, access to capital and education. VEDC is making available loans to businesses that do not qualify for traditional small business bank loans, which is aligned with VEDC’s mission to help create jobs and promotes small business development, with an emphasis on women- and minority-owned businesses and businesses located in low- to moderate-income communities. For

information call Antonio Pizano at 818-907-9977 or go to our website www.vedc.org.

UBS Elevating Entrepreneurs Elevating Entrepreneurs is UBS Americas’ flagship philanthropic initiative that aims to empower underresourced, high-potential small business owners through high-impact business mentoring, access to capital and education & networking opportunities. Led by UBS Community Affairs & Corporate Responsibility, Americas, the initiative brings together the firm’s financial and human capital to enable small businesses to grow, create jobs and develop more enterprising communities. In addition to mentorship, these small business owners have access to the vast network of UBS resources and expertise. Companies should have $1M+ in annual revenue, a minimum of 3 employees; and have been in business for at least 3 years. For additional information or questions, please contact Megan Mitchell (UBS Elevating Entrepreneurs Program Manager) at elevating-entrepreneurs@ubs.com or call +1-212-882 5694 for additional information.
