office principals and visionary builders.

The 256 Fellows program is a one-year learning, networking, and a capstone program designed for the future of capital allocators, family office principals and visionary builders.

The program bridges the gap between capital legacy and modern stewardship. It also provides entry into the 256 Network, a global ecosystem of trust, discretion, and long-term alignment across sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, endowments, family offices, and private equity/venture capital firms.

In this program, stewards don't just study the market; they

learn directly from the architects who have built and sustained

institutions across generations.
