Conglomerateurs
January, 2026

I’m hosting an event for lonely conglomerateurs (yes, that is a word, and if you ever want to get punched in the face, introduce yourself as one).There are tons of support groups for executives and CEOs, but not for folks who run holding companies. It’s a unique role with a rare structure and set of challenges. And frankly, it’s often pretty lonely because there are so few people who can relate to your problems (of which there are many: perverse incentives, compensation negotiations, reporting complexities, etc).In fact, I so rarely meet people who I can talk to about these problems with that I’ve decided to do what I always do. If I can’t find my group, I build my own group.We hosted the first Conglomerateurs earlier this year, and it was a huge success. Chris and I finally got to connect with people who shared our weird business problems, and I was struck by how open and honest the conversations were.Now, we’re doing it again. This time in Hawaii.In January, I’m hosting an event exclusively for people who run at-scale holding companies. It’ll be hyper confidential, YPO forum format, and we’ll have folks from a variety of industries and scales. It will be very intimate, with less than 30 people attending.Here are the key details:• Dates: January 5-8, 2026
• Location: Four Seasons, Maui, Hawaii
• Investment: $14,400 USD (covers accommodations, meals, and all activities)If you’re interested in coming apply here or email [email protected] with:- A quick bio (if you have one)
