An Eye on the Future with $230 Million in Strategic Growth Capital

After creating Convene Hospitality Group (CHG) as a platform to support growth, I’m proud to share a major milestone in our journey: We’ve secured $230 million in strategic financing to help accelerate our vision as a global, multi-brand hospitality organization creating the places and experiences that bring people together.  

Fueling Our Growth

If you’ve been tracking the headlines in this volatile economy, you know this funding is a powerful validation of our business model. It comes at a pivotal time as we acquire, build, and expand a unique portfolio of brands, which include Convene, etc.venues, NeueHouse, and special event venues like The Mallory and The Aperture. 

The way we work and connect has evolved quite a bit since our early days. Our clients no longer just want a space; they’re looking for high-design environments, state-of-the-art production, and human-centered hospitality to make it all happen. This capital gives us the fuel to meet those expectations by focusing on:

• Global Expansion: Scaling our footprint across major markets worldwide to be where our clients need us most.
• Strategic Acquisitions & Signings: Pursuing thoughtful deals to further diversify our expanding portfolio of brands.
• Innovation & Technology: Up-leveling our production capabilities and digital tools to ensure every gathering is a seamless experience.

What’s Next for Convene Hospitality Group

2026 is a robust year for growth, especially in our hometown of New York City. Soon, we’ll be opening a new Convene location in the Scholastic Building in SoHo.

We’re also leaning into the demand for immersive experiences with the launch of The Aperture and The Mallory coming later this year. These spaces are designed to host the city's most noteworthy brand activations and social events. It’s a new adventure for us and one we’ve been primed for.  

To Our Partners and Teams

This achievement is shared with our incredible CHG team and our clients around the world, who continue to push us to innovate. Thank you for your partnership and trust as we continue to blur the lines between commercial real estate and world-class hospitality.
