An evening of bingo, conversation, and professional networking at the Endgame Lounge. Bring a guest, meet local professionals and neighbors, and enjoy a relaxed setting designed for connection rather than a formal presentation.
Join Corey for an educational discussion of options strategies and the planning considerations that surround them. The session will focus on how risk, liquidity, tax treatment, time horizon, and an individual's circumstances can affect whether any approach is appropriate.
Enjoy food and drinks while guest speaker Matthew Hannan of Inland Securities discusses how Opportunity Zone investments may offer potential tax benefits through real estate. Tax considerations and outcomes depend on individual circumstances, and attendees should consult qualified tax and legal professionals before evaluating an opportunity.
Join us to learn about NAIFX, a conservative private credit strategy that offers high income potential with more liquidity than a typical private fund. The session will cover quarterly repurchase windows, ticker-traded access, and Nomura's institutional backing, along with the absence of daily liquidity or market pricing. Presented by Sam Takowsky. Private credit investments involve risk, including the possible loss of principal, and liquidity features, pricing, and income are subject to the fund's terms and market conditions.
Bourbon and bingo at the Endgame Lounge! Join us for a fun night with special guest Daniel Cortez from Worth Investment Group. Daniel will share how Worth acquires strong middle-market businesses and helps them grow for the long term through patient capital and operational support. We’ll also have four NFL games on: Steelers vs. Bills, Patriots vs. Browns, 49ers vs. Raiders, and Rams vs. Chargers. Get ready to yell BINGO!
