Academy Member Investment Forums

When you register for an Academy Forum, you will automatically become a member of our Institutional LP/GP Community (membership dues are automatically built into the registration fee per event). By registering for one of our events, you will be given priority registration access to the next Forum should your schedule allow you to attend

Join a group of senior level decision makers in a collegial, comfortable, friendly, fun, non-sales type of atmosphere where allocators and managers come together face-to-face to share common challenges and exchange investment ideas.  The Academy has fostered an environment to learn and connect with one another in a way that promotes lifelong relationships, trust and friendships.  The Academy strives to have at least 50% of the attendees represented by the allocator community with a limited number of managers and service providers who also can participate.   Attendance is  limited to approximately 250 people per event.  All Academy gatherings and forums are completely off-the-record (no press allowed) with a no-marketing policy.  We encourage members not to solicit others during the conference programming.  Exchanging business cards is entirely appropriate. Time is dedicated during the opening evening of each forum to bring everyone together for a down-to-earth, networking dinner where members can bond and get to know one another on a more human level.
