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). When you attend one of our forums in a given year you will automatically be given priority registration access to our next event 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 no more than 200 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.

IMPORTANT: Our room block at The Umstead Hotel typically sells out quickly, particularly for evenings other than the main night (October 25th). If you are unable to reserve a room at The Umstead Hotel at this time, we recommend booking at another hotel in the area as soon as possible. The Embassy Suites is less than one mile away from The Umstead and a portion of our group usually books there as their first choice due to travel budget limitations or other preferences.
