MEMBERSHIP

To ensure that our groups remain mutually beneficial to all members, Highrise membership is by invitation only and limited to senior-level professionals. Members are selected through an interview process. Our membership committee takes into consideration the experience, knowledge, geography and collaborative mindset of each potential member. 

We invite seasoned experts from across disciplines and provide a rich environment for members to capitalize on opportunities and overcome challenges together.

Events

We believe success is built on relationships. That is why we host events throughout the year to bring Members together from across regional groups. Events include mixers, lunches, special dinners, poker nights and golf outings. Our events allow Members to connect in a less formal, fun-filled atmosphere. Members also have the opportunity to host events to highlight their firm or focus on a particular theme or topic.

MASTERMIND

FOCUS

Our mastermind format allows you to tap into the collective knowledge and experience of the Highrise community to work on issues that are relevant to your success. For some members, this means connecting with new clients while for others, it’s about refining their business strategy or solving operational issues. In the end, it’s about utilizing the power of collaboration. to achieve success.  

​

 The research also shows that face-to-face business meetings produce more revenue and profit than any other form of communication. This research is one of the cornerstones of our model.

Our groups are designed around vertical environments to make getting to and from meetings very time efficient. Often, our Members can walk a block or two or even take the elevator to their meetings.

no overlap

in specialties

Highrise has enabled me to significantly expand my network. I appreciate the fact that my group consists of top-notch professionals without any overlap in specialties. I have referred several matters to fellow members of my group and I look forward to continuing to cultivate these relationships.

"I like Highrise because of the quality of professionals whom I have met, the walking-distance proximity of the meetings to my office, and the industry-vertical meetings that are available to me outside of 
my home group."
