Introducing Summit Matchmaking

Every accepted attendee at the August 4 Capital Markets Summit gets a dedicated concierge to schedule investor-operator meetings before you arrive

Introducing Summit Matchmaking

We've always believed the greatest value of an event like this isn't the panels, but who you meet. That's why we built the Capital Markets Summit around a simple premise: put innovative operators & investors in the same room, keep the room small, and invest heavily in making IRL connections.

Starting today, every accepted attendee will get access to a Summit Concierge who will work with you directly to understand which connections matter most, then build a curated list of attendees to meet and schedule those meetings on your behalf. 

The sooner you register, the sooner the matchmaking process begins and the more meetings we can set before August 4. All accepted attendees will also receive a Summit Guide in early July profiling every individual and company in the room, so you'll know exactly who's attending and can request additional introductions before you arrive.

About the Summit

The Capital Markets Summit is a one-day, invitation-only event in Midtown NYC on Tuesday, August 4, co-produced with Bisnow. The room includes 100+ investors from firms like KKR, Nuveen, Two Sigma, ICONIQ, Jordan Park Group, Slow Ventures, Madison International, and Sopris, alongside the operators building the next generation of real estate asset classes and capital structures.

The day covers new capitalization models (co-GP partnerships, platform investments, SMAs, continuation vehicles), the 2026 allocation playbook from the investors deploying capital right now, underwriting the real estate operating company, family office allocation strategies, the GP studio model, AI tailwinds reshaping asset classes, debt and structured capital, social media as fundraising infrastructure, and (new) Operator Features across niche industrial, residential and hospitality.

The day runs from 8:30 AM to 6:30 PM, with breakfast, lunch, curated networking, scheduled matchmaking meetings, and a closing reception.
