Tad Fallows is co-founder and Managing Director of Long Angle, a private peer community for very-high-net-worth entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals across 45 countries. Long Angle facilitates knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and investment opportunities for its 5,000+ members while prioritizing authenticity, confidentiality, and a strict no-solicitation policy. Membership is highly selective, with no fees and an interview process for every applicant, most of whom are nominated by existing members. This approach has created an environment where members have collectively invested over $300M in alternative assets, organized hundreds of live meetups, and formed dozens of peer advisory groups.

His experience spans bootstrapped company growth, successful exits, and building trust-based communities for high-achieving professionals.
