Questions people ask
6 answeredThe forum is scheduled for November 4–5, 2026.
The 2026 forum uses Palm Beach Lake Pavilion and The Cove Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
The organizer estimates approximately 300 attendees.
The listed audience includes institutional investors, board directors, family offices and HNWIs, attorneys, investment bankers, and key advisors.
It is most useful for board directors, institutional investors, family offices and their advisors who want direct contact with activism, proxy and capital markets specialists, since the roughly 300 attendees include those groups and speakers come from firms such as Okapi Partners, Stifel and Goldman Sachs Private Equity. A venture keynote panel on the first evening, a full panel day after it and networking both nights favor relationship building among senior people, so junior staff or operators seeking technical training would get less from it.
Finance and governance professionals at Palm Beach events usually wear business attire, such as suits or blazers for men and polished dresses or tailored separates for women, with evening receptions leaning dressier. Waterfront venues in November are warm, so lighter fabrics suit the setting.
