The CAP in CAPitalize, live on stage

CAPCON

Two days in Tacoma to stop guessing about money — and start running the framework.

A financial conference built for real people, not the industry. Keynotes, guest speakers, and the plain-English playbook Chris Panagiotu has spent a decade refining.

Date
May 15 & 16, 2027
Venue
Silver Cloud Hotel
at Point Ruston
City
Tacoma, WA
Christopher A. Panagiotu, founder of CAPitalize Your Finances

01About the event

A conference for the people the industry forgot

Most financial events are built for advisors talking to advisors. CAPCon is the opposite. It is two full days, one room, and one goal: you leave understanding exactly how your money works and what to do on Monday morning.

Chris Panagiotu — CFP®, author, and host of the CAPitalize Your Finances podcast — brings the same framework to the stage that he uses with clients, alongside keynote and guest speakers from investing, real estate, and behavioral research.

01

Understand
the machine

Markets, compounding, tax drag, and risk — explained without jargon, in the order they actually matter.

02

Build your
framework

Live working sessions where you map your own numbers onto the CAPitalize framework — not a generic template.

03

Leave with
a plan

You walk out with a written next-90-days plan and the room of people who are doing the same thing.
