Academy Community

ACADEMY MEMBERS AND BENEFITS

Member Organizations Since 2021

Our Academy Community list of logos below is comprised of LPs, GPs and service providers who have participated in at least one of our “Forums” or “Allocator Investment Huddles” since our rebrand from TII to AII in 2021. We cap attendance at member forums to approximately 300 people with at least a 50/50 ratio of allocators to managers.

Managers (GP’s) & Service Providers

Asset Owners & “Other Allocators” (LP’s)

Our definition of an Asset Owner: Investment professionals from Endowments, Foundations, Hospitals, Corporate or Public Pension Funds, Insurance, or Single-Family Offices (SFOs). Asset Owners do not have clients or funds to sell.

 

Our definition of “Other Allocators”: Investment Research professionals from Outsourced CIOs, Consultants and Multi-Family Offices (MFO’s). Other Allocators will have clients however the person representing the firm must be on the investment team responsible for their portfolios not on the marketing/investor relations or business development side of the firm.
