Become a Participating Investment Manager Sponsor
To ensure the creation of impactful connections, TCFG has allocated a limited number of slots for Investment Managers. Complementing this, a rigorous policy for participant attendance will be diligently upheld. This approach guarantees that Investment Managers can maximize valuable "face time" interactions with the attending Financial Professionals, fostering an environment of quality engagement and meaningful networking.
​

Minimum Eligibility Requirements

Becoming a Participating Investment Manager requires meeting the following essential eligibility criteria:

​

1. Active Offering: You must possess an actively available offering.
2. Offering Management: You should hold the role of the offering manager.
3. Regulatory Standing: You must not be under any ongoing enforcement investigations or be associated with recent or pending regulatory issues.
4. Offering Requirements: Your offering must meet specific minimum prerequisites. These may include:
                   Offering an "RIA share class" priced at Net Asset Value (NAV) or excluding an adviser commission within its load.
                   Providing annual valuation reporting for your offering.
                   Establishing a mechanism to integrate data into the Firm's accounting software. This integration can be achieved                               through various methods such as DTCC, DST FanMail, direct data feeds, etc. If this integration is not possible, you                             should outline the approach for reconciling your offering for billing and reporting purposes.
5. Distribution Transparency: If your offering involves distributions, it is necessary to transparently indicate the allocation of the distribution into the return of principal, dividend income, and capital gains.
6. Agreement to Terms: You must agree to abide by the stipulated Terms and Conditions.
Adhering to these criteria ensures a robust and qualified pool of participating Investment Managers, fostering a collaborative and compliant environment.

​

PLATINUM $7,500

Unlock prominent exposure with this elite sponsorship tier, tailored to offer an edge while ensuring value.

Exhibition Spot: You get a six-foot booth, ideal for connecting with TCFG Financial Professionals. While it's not the "speed dating" style, it's a dedicated space where meaningful conversations can happen.

Event Access: Receive two passes to the conference, allowing for extensive networking opportunities and participation in the main events.

Prep Ahead: We'll hand over a list of attendees a week before the conference. You'll have names and basic details to help you identify potential connections (details sent upon payment confirmation).

Brand Promotion:

Your company will be featured in the event program.

Have a representative from your team introduce a breakout session or a workshop.

Your logo will be visible on screens between sessions, ensuring regular brand exposure.

Networking: While the event will be dotted with networking opportunities, as a GOLD sponsor, you'll have exclusive access to a unique session. This is where TCFG Financial Professionals have allocated free time to have dedicated one-on-one interactions with the GOLD sponsor group. It's a golden chance to delve deep into meaningful conversations without the rush.

Branding Touches: Your logo will hold a prominent spot in the conference book, ensuring attendees recognize your contribution. Additionally, during the meals you sponsor, we'll make sure your logo is displayed prominently, allowing attendees to associate your brand with the delightful dining experiences.

​

Gold: $2,500  

Step up your visibility with our GOLD sponsorship tier, designed for those looking for substantial exposure without the higher tier commitments.

Exhibit Area: We'll set you up with a highball table in the exhibit room. It's a space where you can showcase your offerings and chat with TCFG Financial Professionals, albeit in a more open format.

Conference Access: With the GOLD package, one representative from your company will receive a pass to the conference. Dive into the sessions, network, and make the most of this opportunity.

Stay Informed: Before the big day, we'll make sure you get an attendees' snapshot. It's a list highlighting the companies and key professionals attending, so you know who's in the room.

Visibility Boost: Even though a full page in the event program isn't part of this tier, we'll ensure your logo finds its place in a dedicated section for GOLD sponsors.

Your brand will also get periodic shoutouts on screens during session breaks.

Networking: While the exclusive cocktail party is reserved for the top tiers, there will be numerous other networking moments throughout the event for you to leverage.

Event Presence: Your company's logo will be displayed on some shared event collateral, like group banners, ensuring attendees associate your brand with the event's success.

Tailored to offer meaningful advantages, the GOLD package is ideal for those who want to be part of the event's fabric and connect with its attendees.

​

By crafting the offerings in this manner, the DIAMOND sponsorship level is designed to provide a premier experience with exclusive engagement opportunities, followed by the PLATINUM and GOLD levels. This approach ensures that the top-tier sponsor receives a tailored and distinctive experience that aligns with their elevated investment.

​
