Where Deals and Capital Meet

Our 5th Annual Captivate Conference was a success! With over 400 attendees and 50 sponsors, we want to thank everyone who joined us for making this event the best one to date.

Our flagship show turned its attention to the real need in the non-conventional lending industry: capital. The Conference connected lenders, investors, and service providers, and showed attendees the tools needed to grow their business.

With two-and-a-half days of networking, Captivate connected private lenders directly with high-net-worth individuals looking to make their next business deal. All attendees had access to network with one another through an app prior to the event. Stay tuned for details on our next conference for more good times, great memories, and valuable connections!

Cancellation Policy

If you are to cancel six weeks in advance to attending a Geracicon event, you will receive a full refund for your ticket purchase. If you cancel anytime after the six week deadline, you will receive a voucher to attend a future Geracicon event. However, vouchers will only be granted upon giving cancellation notice. If you do not notify Geraci that you will not be attending at least 72 hours prior to the event, no refund or voucher will be granted. For questions, email R.Keys@GeraciLLP.com.

I came out here because there are people here who could potentially change the game, and I want to get in front of those people so that we’re on the same wavelength. There are changes happening in the business, and I think Geraci is trying to stay ahead of everybody else there. I’m here all the way from Texas because they are doing big things, and I want to make sure I understand it so that we can complement it in the future. This wasn’t a business grab, this was a strategic play for me.

Romney NavarroNoble Capital

The networking at Geraci events has allowed us to benefit with new deals and education by being connected to folks in diverse geographical locations, it gives us a big picture view we ordinarily wouldn't have. As a smaller fund, the partners that we have gained through the Geraci events have made it possible for us to fund more than a third more loans by enabling us to free up capital. I learn something new every time and have an opportunity to work on what I've learned when I get home.

Bill FairmanCarolina Hard Money

If you want to be successful, associate with people smarter and more successful than you. The caliber of people at Geraci conferences practically guarantees my success. The attendees and quality of the conferences are unbeatable.

Greg SharpRetaja Group

I have always said, "Geraci has put out the best, most valuable content over the past year, as it pertains to relevant industry news or legislature." The conference was no different. They brought together some of the largest movers in the space. I was excited to not only sponsor but participate in the Innovate conference. Great event & great team of smiling faces!! Love the Geraci crew!

Kendra RommelCivic Financial Services

Geraci knocks it out of the park. The combination of quality learning and networking is unsurpassed.

Randy Newman Total Lender Solutions

I have attended several Geraci conferences over the past few years and loved all of them. They bring in high-quality lenders, service providers, and mortgage investors. Their events offer excellent networking, education, industry insights, and lots of fun.

Rocky ButaniPrivate Lender Link

I had high expectations heading into Innovate, set by colleagues who have attended in the past. This event absolutely blew my lofty expectations away. The connections gained and knowledge I built have been a game-changer for our organization, and I can't wait to be a part of future events, when able!
