Is FON+ open enrollment or application-based?
Both, depending on how you'll use it. The media side (premium articles, full archive, video, surveys, monthly Memo) is open to any verified email — apply and you're in. The network side (member directory + warm introductions + in-person events) is by application — we vet every principal-track applicant to keep the directory and event quality high. Most members use both.
How is membership priced?
Three annual tiers. Basic ($1,495) is the media membership — the full archive, premium articles, the magazine, the newsletters, and the Monthly Statistics Memo. Premium ($4,995) adds the private layer: the member directory, warm peer introductions, and members-only events. Corporate (from $20,000) is for firms partnering with the network — multiple seats, sponsorship and advertising across the newsletters and magazine, and private events, scoped by inquiry. Premium is priced where one good peer introduction or one whitepaper applied to a portfolio decision pays for the year many times over — far less than a Bloomberg Terminal seat.
How does the member directory work?
Once approved, you set your own visibility per field — you can be searchable as "Principal · Single-Family Office · NYC" without revealing the family name. You can DM other members directly, or — more commonly — request an editorial-team-facilitated warm introduction. We do typically one or two intros per quarter, per member, hand-picked for fit.
Is my data shared or sold?
Never. Subscriber data is never sold or shared, and the FON+ member roster is private — visible only to other approved members, with the privacy controls described above. Editorial sources are protected per our published Editorial Standards.
Team or multi-seat pricing for our office?
Yes — Corporate memberships (from \$20,000) bundle multiple seats for family offices, advisory firms, and asset managers, and smaller multi-seat arrangements are available too. Tell us your team size and we'll put together a quote.
Is FON+ tax-deductible?
For most U.S.-based subscribers using FON+ professionally, FON+ qualifies as a research / publication expense and is deductible. We provide annual receipts on request. Confirm with your tax advisor.
What if I'm not a family-office principal?
FON+ is open to family-office staff (CIO, CFO, operating partners), single HNW individuals, and the firms that serve our community (advisors, GPs, allocators). The member directory denotes role, so principals can see who they're talking to. Apply and our team will route you to the right onboarding.
