We’re excited to highlight our upcoming Member Workshop featuring AdaPia d'Errico and Melanie Legamaro, focused on one of the most overlooked skills in the family office space: how to build meaningful relationships and maximize opportunities at family office events.
Family office conferences offer some of the highest-value networking opportunities in the industry, yet many attendees arrive without a clear strategy for making the most of their time. Too often, professionals focus on pitching too quickly, connecting with the wrong people, or leaving without establishing any lasting relationships.
In this practical and interactive workshop, AdaPia and Melanie will share a proven framework for approaching family office events through three key phases:
- Preparation before the event
- Presence and engagement during the event
- Effective follow-up that turns introductions into long-term relationships
The discussion will explore:
- How to identify the most relevant people in the room
- Understanding the roles, influence, and decision-making dynamics within family offices
- Building authentic relationships that extend beyond a single conference
- Common networking mistakes and how to avoid them
- Strategies for raising capital and developing investor relationships
- Best practices for maximizing conferences, summits, and networking events
Drawing on their experience across Wall Street, institutional capital, private markets, and investment fundraising, AdaPia d'Errico and Melanie Legamaro will provide actionable insights that attendees can immediately apply.
Whether you're attending a family office event this summer or preparing for the busy fall conference season, this workshop will equip you with a practical playbook for creating meaningful connections and getting more value from every event you attend.
