Spring Strategy Symposiums
2026

At our recent symposium series, we brought together clients and guests to cut through the noise and explore where markets and the economy may be headed next. Across three sessions, we discussed how investors can position portfolios for resilience while continuing to pursue long-term growth.
We were pleased to host attendees at Boulder Ridge Country Club on Wednesday, April 22, Elgin Country Club on Thursday, April 30, and Harper College on Saturday, May 2.
Thank you to all who joined us for thoughtful discussion and engaging conversation. We look forward to continuing these conversations in the months ahead.
