The Ascent

Closed ascension.

The house has three rooms. Entry to the upper rooms is not sold. It is conferred.

How Ascension Works

The line is the same for everyone.

  • One entrance

    Every member enters through the Collective, regardless of company size. A $50M operator and a $400K operator walk through the same door.

  • Twelve months of service

    Every member serves a minimum of twelve months on a stage-matched board before ascension is considered.

  • Graduation, not purchase

    Ascension requires board endorsement and a chairman invitation. It is earned in the room, in front of the people who watched you work.

  • Cohort graduation

    Boards that grow together may graduate together, carrying their trust and their history into the next room.
