Apply for Membership

Founding Membership

Circle 26 admits members in cohorts, not continuously. Each cohort is reviewed individually to ensure every member brings genuine coordination responsibility and the structural complexity that makes the peer circle worth belonging to. We're currently accepting applications for founding cohort.

Option 01

Family Principal

You own or lead the family wealth. You make final decisions on governance, investment policy, and strategic direction. You are looking to build or professionalise the operating layer for your family — and you understand that doing so requires a system, not just more advisors.

Option 02

Operator / Coordinator

You coordinate complexity on behalf of a family or across multiple families. Your role may be formal — Chief of Staff, Family Office COO, Family Office Director, Head of Family Office Services — or informal, carrying the coordination responsibility without a title that fully describes what you do.

NOTE BEFORE APPLYING: If your work is primarily within a single advisory discipline — investment management, tax, legal, banking — and you do not carry the coordination responsibility across those functions, Circle 26 is likely not the right fit at this time. We would rather be direct about that now than have you invest time in an application that is unlikely to progress. If you are on the boundary, reach out directly before applying. We are happy to have a short conversation to assess fit before you complete the form.
