Cortlandt
Curate | Connect | Create
Opened in 1888 by New York Telephone, the Cortlandt Exchange was Manhattan's first central switchboard.
It was the point of connectivity for the Wall Street
investment community.
Inspired by this legacy, Cortlandt today is a
dynamic exchange of knowledge and profit.
Curated for investors, operators, and entrepreneurs, it brings together intelligence, ingenuity, and trust from seasoned problem solvers, decision-makers, and thought leaders.
We connect our friends to solve problems
and create opportunities.
The Advantage of Relationships
How do you win?
It isn’t data or AI. Everyone has those. Bankers and consultants offer their services to all who can pay. And in an accelerating, complex world no firm or individual can know everything. The advantage you need comes from relationships — the right relationships. But, too often, they have been out of reach.
The Collective
Handpicked members valued for wisdom, judgment, and curiosity.
They have earned the freedom to set their own priorities. They control how they invest their time and capital, focusing on driving results, enjoying camaraderie, sharing in successes, and staying at the forefront of innovation.
Our Members are not for hire; their motivation goes beyond money. They are individuals who want to help their friends - and friends of friends — solve problems and create opportunities.
