FUND LAUNCH LIVE 2024

What is Fund Launch Live?

‍Dear Wall Street Rebel,
‍
Welcome to our third Fund Launch LIVE.

This is no ordinary event. There are no ordinary attendees.
‍
Fund Launch LIVE is for investors, entrepreneurs, and asset managers (big and small)...

Who share one mission:

Playing Bigger. ⚡

(we're talking "no such thing as deals or opportunities out of your reach" big. Where if you can dream it, you can acquire it)

‍However, there's a big problem at hand...

The way most people try to scale portfolios and acquire assets is backwards...

It's too slow. There's too much personal risk. And honestly, it's borderline impossible to reach the big leagues in one lifetime.

That's where we come in, for 3 straight days...

At Fund Launch LIVE, you'll be presented with over 18 keynotes from people who started out small...

And managed to scale to $10 million - $30 billion in AUM 🔥

They'll be sharing their most guarded secrets on:
‍
How they managed to breakthrough in their Asset Class

Their strategies for 2024 and beyond... (It's nothing like we've seen before)
‍
How they have shifted their strategy to raise capital in this turbulent market
‍
And ultimately, how they are creating wealth that will carry on for generations...
‍
So join 2,000 of us in Orlando for the most impactful 3 days of your year, so you can:

Build a network with serious firepower

Learn what no one else can teach you

And find your catalyst to SCALE!

Does Wall Street like this event?

Nope.

Which is more the reason for you to join us this year at Fund Launch LIVE 🚀
