LOCAL INVESTMENT FUND TALENT
FOR ARIZONA

LIFT AZ - March 12, 2026

Advancing Arizona’s Investment Future Together!

LIFT-AZ is the flagship annual summit of the Arizona Fund Manager Association (AFMA), dedicated to elevating Arizona’s investment management industry to new heights. This one-day gathering brings together institutional investors, family offices, private fund managers, and leading investment professionals who share a commitment to advancing Arizona as a premier destination for capital formation and fund innovation.

This year's summit will be held on March 12, 2026 at the Heard Museum in Phoenix, AZ—an iconic setting that reflects Arizona’s culture and heritage. Following the day’s programming, guests are invited to connect and unwind at a private cocktail reception with live music in the Heard Museum courtyard.

OUR GOAL

Through thought leadership, networking, and collaboration, LIFT-AZ advances AFMA’s mission: to build a more connected, capital-efficient, and resilient investment management community in Arizona. By convening leading voices across private equity, venture capital, hedge funds, credit, real assets, and beyond, the summit generates meaningful opportunities for economic growth, educational engagement, and long-term impact in our state.
