TIDE Virtual Event Announcement
|
|
Save the Date... Our virtual conference will be held on Tuesday, September 29th thru Thursday, October 1st. While the conference will take place over three days, the agenda will be condensed to two hours each day. We promise it will be more interactive than just a Zoom call! (We still love you, Zoom!)
If you already purchased a ticket for our inaugural event, please use the TIDE Member ticket to register for a free pass. Registration will be confirmed with our records.

|
Speaker Update... We are re-confirming the original speaker line-up. There will be a few changes given the condensed schedule. However, you can be sure to expect the same level of high caliber speakers that we featured for inaugural in-person conference. In addition, we confirmed Co-Founder and Chairman of The Carlyle Group, Dan D'Aniello! Please view the video below regarding the announcement.

A cause bigger than ourselves...
With everything that's happening, we took a look outside of the box to see if there are other areas where we can help. While our main focus is on the investment industry, we thought it would be a great idea to feature in our newsletter non-profits that are helping to create a better world. We'll provide the info and the direct link for you to donate. Please feel free to send us non-profits to promote for our review.
One in particular which we can personal vouch for is TEAM Inc. (Tech Exposure & Access through Mentorship). TEAM Inc. is a black-owned non-profit in Oakland, Ca, focused on empowering students through their passion for sports with the STEM skills to define their futures. TEAM offers a free 12-week training program for high school students in the fall and spring centered on performance analysis platforms.
