Morgan Miller, CEO of Symposium Capital, was a featured speaker at Baker McKenzie's prestigious Family Office & Private Capital Forum, held at the firm's Fifth Avenue office in Manhattan.

The event combined strategic insight with high-level networking, offering a platform for influential decision-makers to shape the future of wealth and investment management. Miller contributed to the panel discussion on Private Equity, Venture Capital, and Private Capital, offering a fresh perspective on the role of collectibles in portfolio diversification. "We specialize in alternative assets, tangible assets," Morgan Miller said, pointing to Symposium's distinctive focus on physical, culturally relevant investments.¹

Symposium Capital stands at the forefront of alternative investments, focusing on a curated portfolio of fine wine, fine art, and rare comic books. Three tangible asset classes with strong historical performance and resilience. "These assets have a low market correlation and a predictable volatility," Miller noted, framing them as valuable tools for investors seeking protection in unstable markets.² "There's opportunity to be found when there's instability, when there's volatility," he added, underscoring the firm's opportunistic approach during times of economic uncertainty.³

Symposium Capital is based in New York City. 

Beyond financial metrics, Symposium Capital also prioritizes enjoyment and accessibility. "Aside from these assets working for the purposes that we want, they're also fun assets," Miller remarked, highlighting how passion and performance can coexist in the world of private capital. On the unique practicality of collectibles like comic books, Morgan Miller added: "You can have a quarter billion dollars in a filing cabinet. It's easy to move, it's easy to store."⁴

As investor appetite for non-correlated assets grows, Symposium Capital is carving out a unique position with its data-driven, non-fractionalized approach. The firm's originality did not go unnoticed by peers. Chris Shen, co-founder and COO of Revere VC and fellow panelist, praised the innovation: "I had not seen a completely novel fund structure and strategy in a long time, until I was introduced to Symposium Capital. Definitely one to watch." Another panelist echoed the sentiment, saying, "You're one fund, but I think you're a little bit of a microcosm of something that's happening on a bigger stage."⁵

"We specialize in alternative assets, tangible assets," Morgan Miller said, pointing to Symposium Capital's distinctive focus on physical, culturally relevant investments.

Karl Egbert, the global co-chair of the Investment Funds and Derivatives groups and a member of the firm's Global Financial Services Regulation steering committee, said, "Technology doesn't just make investment easier-it creates markets for asset classes that didn't exist before. At Baker McKenzie's annual private capital conference, we had the chance to talk about how private capital can invest in asset classes like art. It was a timely discussion when we see the private wealth and investment management worlds colliding."
