Tiburon CEO Summits
Since 2001, Tiburon has hosted unique semi-annual CEO Summits for its executive-level clients. Tiburon CEO Summits last two-to-three days and focus on in-depth discussions of Tiburon research and leading-edge business models through guest presentations, panel discussions, and break-out sessions. Guest speakers generally support the twin themes of challenging conventional wisdom and maintaining a consumer-orientation. General sessions also often address industry mergers & acquisitions and venture capital & private equity trends. Panel discussions revolve around consumer, financial advisor, and distributor needs (representing all levels of "clients"). Break-out sessions address more tactical issues, and are structured around products, markets, and advisor issues. Tiburon CEO Summits likely provide the only true forum where financial services industry CEOs from across traditional industry silos gather to discuss business opportunities. The list of business relationships resulting from prior Tiburon CEO Summits is impressive.
Executive-level Tiburon clients are invited to participate along with a handful of media representatives in a forum of open sharing and discussion of industry trends. The meetings have become a hot ticket for industry executives. There is no cost to attend aside from one's travel expenses. The CEO Summits are not positioned as a revenue generating activity unto themselves but instead as a unique reward for Tiburon clients to share its research and network with other senior client executives. Hence, Tiburon reserves all seats for the firm's executive-level clients. If you have not engaged the firm recently, please consider how Tiburon could again help you further your business strategy through its services - research reports, databases, conference speeches, market seminars, market research, strategy consulting, venture capital, mergers & acquisitions advice, and board memberships. If you are interested in engaging Tiburon for a project, please contact Brian Cotter at BCotter@TiburonAdvisors.Com or 415-789-2546 or via Tiburon's web site at www.TiburonAdvisors.Com.
Prior CEO Summits
Tiburon has held twelve previous CEO Summits. The most recent Tiburon CEO Summit was held April 18-19, 2007 in San Francisco, CA. Guest speakers included John DesPrez (CEO, John Hancock Financial Services, Manulife Financial), Ed Haldeman (CEO, Putnam Investments, Marsh & McLennan), Steve Lockshin (CEO, Lydian Wealth Management, Lydian Trust Company), Jim Riepe (Retired Vice Chairman & Senior Advisor, T. Rowe Price Group), and Paul Stevens (President & CEO, Investment Company Institute). Click here to read about all prior Tiburon CEO Summits.
Based on feedback from prior Tiburon CEO Summits, Tiburon predominantly invites financial services industry CEOs to be the CEO Summit guest speakers. Attendees repeatedly report that they take away the most from other CEOs in like situations, and this fosters the collaborative environment sought. Speakers are asked to discuss both their businesses and their views on industry developments. Tiburon deliberately structures time for questions & answers with each speaker, again to foster the collaborative environment. Aside from Tiburon's own Managing Principal Chip Roame (who kicks-off each CEO Summit), past speakers have included:

Attendees at Tiburon CEO Summit VI in San Francisco, CA listen intently to a general session speaker
More specifically, there are two specific attendee policies:
- Seniority: Tiburon is making a big effort to limit attendance to the CEOs and leading strategy makers from its client companies. Almost all attendees have C level titles (CEOs, COOs, CFOs); a handful are executive vice presidents leading core business units and/or internal business strategy groups
- Clients: Since Tiburon hosts the events, it is economic reality that the group must be limited to senior executives who have previously benefited from Tiburon's research-based strategy work
Tiburon CEO Summit Planning Committee
Tiburon's CEO Summits could not be planned without a lot of help from many others. Eight Tiburon CEO Summit Planning Committee members invest dozens of hours into securing guest speakers, nominating & confirming attendees, and facilitating & writing-up sessions. Tiburon is grateful for their help.
