Merriman Capital to Provide Lead Sponsorship of LD MICRO's 6th Annual Micro-Cap Growth Conference

(Thomson Reuters ONE via COMTEX) -- SAN FRANCISCO - November 19, 2013 - Merriman Capital, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Merriman Holdings, Inc. (otcqx:MERR), today announced that it will be the primary sponsor of the LD MICRO 6th Annual Growth Conference. The conference will be held on December 3-5 at the Luxe Sunset Bel Air hotel in Los Angeles. The three-day event is expected to bring together 236 micro-cap companies from various growth industries presenting to several hundred institutional investors.

Jon Merriman, CEO of Merriman Capital, commented, "The LD MICRO conference has grown to be one of the strongest small and microcap forums in the U.S. We are pleased to participate as lead sponsor for the 6th consecutive year and proud to be associated with LD's innovative leadership in an underserved marketplace."

Chris Lahiji, President of LD MICRO, stated, "We are expecting another record turnout again this year because of the unique companies that are attending. The event now is three days. Investors want to see a large group of high-quality names that receive little to no coverage in the investment community. LD and our main event sponsor, Merriman Capital, share a common purpose: to help investors find opportunities in today's emerging-growth companies, which we believe are the market leaders of tomorrow."
