Enduring Ventures Duration 2025
We are thrilled to invite you to our fourth annual Enduring Ventures Shareholder Summit, now called Duration!
What we cherish most about our past Summits is the deep connections and meaningful conversations shared among our attendees. This year, we’re embracing that spirit even more by creating a true "island effect"—a space where conversations can flow naturally over dinner and in the quiet moments in between. And yes, this time, we’ll literally be on an island!
Joining us will be high quality, handpicked guests including fellow investors, business owners and some surprise guests. We will allocate some time for off-the-record discussions to reflect on our journey and shared learnings, and pack the rest of the schedule with opportunities for connection and learning.
Why the new name?
Duration is inspired by the idea that as our world and capital markets become ever more focused on the short-term, long-term thinking is the greatest source of arbitrage.
We founded Enduring Ventures to build a vehicle for our own generational ambitions, inspired by long-term thinkers from decades past.
At Duration, we invite our guests to think in decades and generations rather than quarters and media cycles.
Our conversations will focus on:
Long-term investing.
Long-term living (longevity).
Long-term thinking.
We hope you'll have as much fun attending as we have producing it.
The Details:
Duration will be held on a stunning and secluded 9.5-acre property on a small island on the Chesapeake Bay. Over the course of three days, you’ll enjoy relaxation, seafood, kayaking, swimming, and more.
We’ll dine at Tickler’s Crab Shack, conveniently located on-site, where the fresh seafood is as unforgettable as the sunsets.
Afternoons will feature swimming in the saltwater pool, and evenings will bring cozy conversations around the fire as the bay fades into twilight.
What’s Covered:
Once you arrive, everything is included—lodging, meals, and activities. We’ll do our best to arrange transportation from the airport to the venue unless you prefer to drive.
Getting There:
Baltimore Washington International (BWI) is the most convenient airport, about 90 minutes away. Reagan National, Dulles, and Philadelphia airports are also options, each about two hours by car.
We can’t wait to spend quality time together in this special setting.
Warm regards,
Sieva & Xavier
