To confirm · partnersLogo files for each firm, and any partner named at the New York Summit, the Yale Club or London that is not listed above. We list only firms Capital Variation has already named publicly; we have added none.
To confirm · the count374 is a floor, not a total. It is what Eventbrite counted; anyone invited outside the platform is not in it. And of the fourteen listed editions, four are still upcoming and two past ones are not documented on this page. Both numbers should be the real ones before this goes to a sponsor.

Name, Title, Firm · City edition

To confirm · attributed quoteOne or two quotes, on the record. Tim Herriage hosted New York and appeared at two further gatherings; a family-office principal would be the other. Two sentences each is enough. One attributed quote from a named principal is worth more to a prospective sponsor than every adjective on this page.
