Convergence Family Office Salon Returns to Park City for Annual Gathering
Park City, Utah, October 1, 2026 – The Convergence Family Office Salon is set to return to Park City for its annual three-day gathering, bringing together family office principals, senior decision-makers, and select researchers. The event, scheduled from October 5 to 7, 2026, aims to provide a candid and unscripted platform for in-depth discussions on complex issues facing long-term capital management.
"Families are facing unprecedented challenges as they make long-term decisions, with some fundamental assumptions about the investment environment having changed," said Richard Swart, PhD, the Producer of Convergence Family Office Salon. "The unique value of Convergence lies in creating a space where family office leaders can share insights, challenge their own thinking, and form meaningful relationships."
The summit kicks off on October 5 with a welcome dinner for participants. On October 6, the event moves to a private estate outside Park City, where 60 family office principals and senior decision-makers will engage in a closed-door, unscripted session focusing on portfolio construction, succession, co-investment, and family office decision-making.
The following day, October 7, the gathering expands to a maximum of 120 participants for four chaired working sessions, each guided by a specific question and expected to produce a written conclusion. The topics include: - Which disruptions won’t revert - Capital architecture for a different world - The decision-making infrastructure problem - Preparing the next generation for structural discontinuity
Two leading researchers will anchor the discussions. Petr Johanes, PhD, of Empowering Prosperity Solutions and a former Stanford lecturer, will lead the session on decision-making infrastructure. His research will draw on behavioral and structural failures affecting family office investment committees. Chelsea Toler, PhD, Co-Founder of Logictry and President of the KFG Foundation, will focus on rising-generation leadership, using insights from interviews with over 2,000 rising-generation members to inform the discussion.
Additional researchers, practitioners, and participants will be announced in the coming weeks leading up to the event.
The Convergence Family Office Salon is a curated gathering for family office principals and senior decision-makers. Its programs combine closed-door peer discussions, original research, and unstructured relationship-building to address the questions affecting long-term family capital.
