About Event

​About this event

​A two-day interactive workshop designed for real estate sponsors, entrepreneurs, and capital raisers looking to raise capital from family offices.

​Monday, June 23rd: 12:00pm–1:30pm EDT
Tuesday, June 24th: 12:00pm–1:30pm EDT

​Both sessions will be recorded

​Over two 90-minute live sessions, you’ll learn how family offices invest, explore real-world case studies, and walk away with practical tools to build your capital network and negotiate smarter.

​Participants will receive pre-read materials, including case studies and frameworks, and gain post-course access to Circle, where we’ll share recorded videos, sample decks, curated investor lists, and outreach templates.

​You’ll learn how to:

  • ​Understand the family office landscape—types of family offices, how they invest, and how they make decisions.

  • ​Compare investment structures—joint ventures, LP capital, co-GP deals, and direct platform investments.

  • ​Learn from case studies—real-world examples of family office-backed sponsors and platforms.

  • ​Build your family office network—proven strategies for sourcing and developing investor relationships.

  • ​Create your own outreach campaign—hands-on session to craft cold emails, improve your deck, and map your targets.

  • ​Negotiate with family offices—walk through term sheets and governance considerations from live deals.

​You’ll leave with actionable insight into how family offices invest in real estate—and how to get them to invest in you.
