Rooms (including any cancellation fees or deposits) are not refundable if canceled less than 30 days of your arrival date. We do not guarantee the availability of our hotel room block, and recommend you book early.

You agree to respond to all of our requests within our stated deadlines.

Acceptance of any substitute is subject to our prior approval via email. If you cancel your participation and cannot provide a substitute approved by us, this may result in you being placed on a blacklist that will prevent you from qualifying for Hosted Financial Advisory Firm & Limited Partner tickets for one or more future years.
  6. Notice of Employment Change: If you (a) are no longer employed by, or (b) become aware before Future Proof that you will no longer be employed at the time of Future Proof or after Future Proof by the financial advisory firm or Limited Partner organization based upon which you were approved for your Hosted Financial Advisory Firm & Limited Partner ticket, you must let us know immediately upon your becoming aware so that we can cancel your participation in Hosted Meetings. In such cases, you will no longer be eligible to participate in Hosted Meetings or to receive a travel/hotel reimbursement or complimentary Future Proof ticket. Failure to notify us may result in you being placed on a blacklist that will prevent you from qualifying for Hosted Financial Advisory Firm & Limited Partner tickets for one or more future years. At all times, including following Future Proof, we reserve the right to only communicate with you at your work email address regardless of any other email address you may have provided or we may have otherwise used.
  7. Reimbursement Process: As the final step to receiving your travel and hotel reimbursement of up to $750 in travel/hotel expenses incurred, we require that you complete a short feedback form providing specific evaluations of each Hosted Meeting (we will also ask participating individuals from sponsors to provide feedback on their meetings with you). Please note that Future Proof will not reimburse for any mileage, points or rewards used for travel. Reimbursement is conditioned upon completing all of your scheduled meetings and submitting the feedback survey and travel/hotel receipts following the event within our stated deadlines.
  8. Credit Card Details: You agree to provide your credit card information, and authorize us to process a $1 charge on your credit card as part of your Future Proof ticket registration. You also authorize us to charge the cost of your ticket at the rate of $1,045 to your credit card if you do not complete your scheduled hosted meetings as described in section (9) above.

Terms and Conditions for Sponsors Participating in Hosted Meetings as part of Breakthru Meetings

Last revised: 12/06/2023

These terms and conditions (“Terms & Conditions”) apply to those individuals (“Hosted Meetings Participant”, “you” or “your”) participating in Hosted Meetings (“Hosted Meetings”) on behalf of sponsors as part of Advisor Circle’s (“we”, “us” or “our”) Breakthru Meetings (“Meetings Program”) scheduled to be held during Future Proof on September 15-18, 2024 in Huntington Beach, CA (the “Event”).

These Terms & Conditions may be modified occasionally, so check back often. So that you are aware changes have been made, we will adjust the “Last revised” date at the beginning of this document. Continued participation in the Event by you will constitute your acceptance of any changes or revisions to these Terms & Conditions.

  1. We will arrange a series of 15-minute meetings (“Breakthru Meetings”) between Hosted Financial Advisory Firms & Limited Partners (“Hosted Buyers”), and (b) Hosted Meetings Participants. All Hosted Meetings will take place during Meeting Times, as part of the Event’s Meetings Program. Notwithstanding the number of meetings purchased on behalf of any given Hosted Meetings Participant or in aggregate by all Hosted Meetings Participants, we do not guarantee any minimum number of Hosted Buyers or any minimum number of Hosted Meetings for any Hosted Meetings Participant. The number of meetings arranged for any given Hosted Meetings Participant might be below the number purchased.
    1. “Hosted Financial Advisory Firms & Limited Partners” are those qualifying individuals from financial advisory firms and Limited Partnerships (individuals must be (i) a U.S.-registered financial advisor rep (RIA, IBD, or BD) with an active CRD number who is responsible for actively managing institutional or retail client portfolios, (ii) a senior-level employee of a financial advisory firm responsible for managing the technology used by the firm to support its clients and colleagues or responsible for research and due diligence of fund managers, or (iii) A Limited Partner or a member of a Limited Partner who is an external investor in private and public funds and investments) who identify themselves to Advisor Circle as responsible for buying or evaluating public and private funds to add to client portfolios or distribution platforms; or technology and solutions for their company, and who also agree to take up to eight (8) 15-minute Hosted Meetings with Hosted Meetings Participants as part of the Hosted Program. Advisor Circle provides complimentary tickets to the Event and travel reimbursement up to $750 to these Hosted Buyers.
    2. “Hosted Meetings Participants” are those individuals who (i) enrolled in the Meetings Program and were designated as Hosted Meetings Representatives for their organization, pursuant to a fully executed contract between their organization and Advisor Circle (“Contract”), or (ii) enrolled in the Meetings Program and were designated as Hosted Meetings Representatives for their organization, following their organization directly purchasing Hosted Meetings as part of the Event. A single organization may have multiple Hosted Meetings Participants. Hosted Meetings Participants are included in the process of arranging Hosted Meetings with Hosted Buyers, which process is defined by Advisor Circle in its sole discretion and may change from time to time.
    3. “Meeting Times” are predetermined time slots during which Hosted Meetings take place. The Meeting Times are at the sole discretion of Advisor Circle, will be provided to Hosted Buyers and Hosted Meetings Participants by Advisor Circle and are subject to change by Advisor Circle. As of the date of these Terms & Conditions, Meetings Times are scheduled to be:
      • Monday, September 16, 2024:
        1. 9:50 am-10:59 am PT

        2. 1:50 pm-2:59 pm PT
        3. 3:50 pm-4:59 pm PT

Advisor Circle will notify Hosted Meetings Participants of the specific times of their meetings within Meeting Times prior to the start of the Event. A failure on the part of Hosted Meetings Participants to be available for all Meeting Times may limit the ability of Advisor Circle to arrange Hosted Meetings for those Hosted Meetings Participants.

  1. The number of Hosted Meetings purchased by any given Hosted Meetings Participant either directly or by their organization as part of a Contract is that Hosted Meetings Participant or organization’s “Hosted Meetings Cap”. A Hosted Meetings Cap can be increased by purchasing additional Hosted Meetings at any time set forth by Advisor Circle (deadlines apply at the sole discretion of Advisor Circle).
  2. Hosted Meetings are priced as set forth in the Contract (the price of each meeting being the “Price Per Meeting”) or online during the Event, and the Hosted Meetings Participant must pay an amount equal to the Hosted Meetings Cap multiplied by the Price Per Meeting (“Meetings Payment Amount”). Advisor Circle has the right to increase the Price Per Meeting at any time.
    1. Advisor Circle will complete a post-event reconciliation to determine the number of “Completed Hosted Meetings” which is defined as the number of Hosted Meetings that (i) actually took place, (ii) would have taken place but for the absence of the Hosted Meetings Participant during the Hosted Meeting (including late arrivals resulting in Hosted Meetings that are less than 15 minutes in length), and (iii) would have taken place but for the cancellation of a Hosted Meeting by the Hosted Meetings Participant due to availability or for any other reason.
      • If the number of Completed Hosted Meetings multiplied by the Price Per Meeting (averaged if more than one Price Per Meeting applies) is less than the Meetings Payment Amount, Advisor Circle will provide a refund of the difference (“Refund”) within 60 days following the end of the Event (“Refund Payment Date”).
  3. Hosted Meetings Participants must provide relevant information and respond to Advisor Circle’s requests by our stated deadlines as set forth in the Breakthru Meetings guidelines (and other communications), including:

A Hosted Meetings Participant or their organization may add one or more non-attendees from their organization as Organization Admins (or assign attendees from their organizations as Organization Admins). Organization Admins can complete certain pre-event tasks on behalf of Hosted Meeting Participants. Organization Admins cannot attend the Event unless they hold a valid ticket, pay the applicable ticket fees, and abide by all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Terms of Attendance and Participation, which are available here.
  5. Hosted Meetings Participants must comply with Breakthru Meetings rules and directives, including:

      • Contact any of the Hosted Buyers with whom they have Hosted Meetings prior to the event (unless they have also come into contact with those Hosted Attendees in the ordinary course of business unrelated to Hosted Meetings, in which case Hosted Meetings Participants can only reach out to those Hosted Buyers about matters unrelated to Hosted Meetings.
      • Change the scheduled time of their Hosted Meetings (Hosted Meetings must take place at the time assigned by Advisor Circle).
      • Contact any Hosted Buyers who do not show up for their Hosted Meeting (unless they have also come into contact with those Hosted Buyers in the ordinary course of business unrelated to Hosted Meetings, in which case Hosted Meetings Participants can only reach out to those Hosted Buyers about matters unrelated to Hosted Meetings.
    4. The Hosted Meetings Participant must each complete a feedback survey following the Event, providing specific evaluations for each meeting. Failure to provide feedback by the Refund Payment Date may delay your Refund until feedback has been completed.
    5. Advisor Circle in its sole discretion determines the eligibility of any Hosted Meetings Participant or Hosted Buyer to be accepted for Hosted Meetings and may in its sole discretion end enrollment of any Hosted Meetings Participant or Hosted Buyer in the Meetings Program or Hosted Meetings at any time and for any reason, including canceling any Hosted Meetings and providing a refund of any Meetings Payment Amount (in such an event the payment amount would be due within 60 days following the end of the Event).
  6. Time is of the essence in all Meetings Program deadlines.
