Private & Public Investment Opportunities

 

Boulder Investment Group (BIG) comprises 800+ investors interested in furthering their knowledge of multiple asset classes and gaining access to attractive deal flow. 87% of members are QPs, and collective net worth exceeds $20 billion.

Premise

BIG is steeped in the notion that a group of sophisticated investors with compatible financial goals can attract a greater number of choice opportunities than they can individually. Our group only considers offerings that one or more members have already invested in, and earned a solid return.

 

Pitch Meetings

BIG hosts events via Zoom every six weeks to showcase two specific investment opportunities. Since BIG’s 2009 inception, 200+ offerings have been presented, with over half of our members investing in at least one. Occasionally, members will receive a “One-Off” email communique regarding an attractive investment opportunity that cannot fit into the presentation schedule.

 

Sponsors

Featured presenters are not only fund managers, general partners, and company founders, but also respected asset-class experts. Because our members value educational sessions as much as deal pitches, past presenters have included an economist, a global market strategist, an estate-planning attorney, a CPA, an independent corporate trustee, and a property and casualty insurance agency, as well as authorities from a myriad of other fields.

Investment Minimums

 

Because members invest individually, BIG requires that presenting entities set minimums not to exceed $250,000. Most sponsors require minimums of only $50,000-$100,000 to encourage initial investments.
