Each year, the Chatham Conference gathers a curated group of investors and innovators for unvarnished discussions and high value connections. We are people-first focused, purposely creating connections with those who have successful track records and those with high potential in an intimate environment where casual conversations lead to investment opportunities and strategic partnerships. Find out more about what makes the Chatham Conference Special…

The 2026 conference will gather folks at the Chatham Bars Inn on Cape Cod on October 7th and 8th, 2026. Whether you fly into Hyannis or Boston, or drive to the Cape, our Chatham location gives you more time to make new connections and engage in peer conversations that will accelerate your growth.
