We are almost done the finishing touches of our Sixth Annual Family Office Summit, held in Toronto at the lovely Toronto Region Board of Trade on Queen's Quay. We start on April 9th with an SFO exclusive sessions - no sponsors, consultants, MFOs...just SFO - for Relatives and Professionals (in separate rooms). We already have 45 SFOs confirmed for these sessions and the conference. If you'd like to participate, please let me know (and early, as we vet everyone and nearing capacity). April 10th is a full day of content and networking. As usual, we NEVER share contact info of any attendee - please use the conference app to connect and book meetings during the days. Thank you to our very experienced panelists: Richard Heller (Cooper Family Office), Vishnu Amble (GreenBear Group LLC), and Alison Maschmeyer (Pinnacle Investment Management Group). Three Shades of Staking GPs There’s nothing like the focus afforded a new venture – plus the commensurate risk of ruin that might come to pass if the company is not run well or simply doesn’t achieve the scale required to continue as a going concern. As well, hitting one’s stride and capitalizing on hard work is paramount to leaping to the next stage. This panel will impart practical wisdom from three single family offices who invest in more start-up and emerging managers – great information for managers and investors alike.

I am absolutely delighted to be representing ClimbUK by Investor Ladder speaking at the "Convention of The North" today in #Leeds. I have been asked to talk about why #events like #Climb24 are important to the region. We all know that the #North of the UK is a great place to build a #business, to #work and to invest, but for some people outside of the regions, it can be difficult to navigate and to find the right partners. Bringing a large #international business #festival to #Leeds not only showcases all the amazing opportunities in the regions across the UK, it also provides an environment for key people to connect, learn and develop. The scale of #Climb24 means that we are able to attract #global #speakers, key executives from major #corporations, #academia, #riskcapital and #public sector into a melting pot to make a difference in key areas. Rarely is there an opportunity to get all the right people in the right place at the same time. An event like #Climb24 provides the ideal platform to do exactly that. Equally we are able to attract international delegations featuring companies who want to expand or invest into #UKPLC - normally they may only look at #London or #Cambridge, but Climb24 gives them the opportunity to connect with key people from other regions And for #Founders, it is a great opportunity to build key #relationships to help accelerate their businesses. Feedback from #Climb23 showed that founders were able to meet more (relevant) potential #investors in 2 days than they had in a year, with companies securing #equity #investment from #investors who they met at #climb23. For those founders and #businessleaders , it is also an opportunity to build relationships with potential partners and customers as well as join workshops, masterclasses and round tables to develop. #Climb24 also provides a platform for leaders of #SMEs and #highgrowth businesses to share their views and opinions on an international stage. By brining together key influencers and thought leaders, major events like #Climb also provide the opportunity to address industry level challenges and opportunities in #diversityandinclusion #socialinclusion #sustainability #futuretalent #mentalhealth etc. With the right people in the room actions get taken and things happen. All of this in an engaging festival vibe which is all about building relationships.

I really like this reflection on the outstanding growth of the VC industry in Italy shared by Andrea Di Camillo during our speaker interview ahead of the upcoming 0100 Conference Mediterranean. "Local players like P101 have played a pivotal role, providing essential capital and expertise to early-stage companies, and helping fuel growth. At the same time, they’ve started returning capital to investors, enhancing the industry's credibility and attracting new funds." ✔ Essential Capital and Expertise for startups ➕ Capital return to investors =Industry's credibility + new funds = Growth! 😊
