August Events

Deviate had a great time at the 2025 FOX Family Office & Wealth Advisor Forum in Chicago. We were able to catch up with clients, colleagues, and friends, as well as participate in a panel discussion on Optimizing Technology: Best Practices for Selection, Implementation, and Outsourcing. Another great event!

Next Up: September 3 – 5, Nashville, TN – 2025 FOX Technology and Risk Management Showcase Hear from tech leaders and visionaries in the family office industry as technology continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace. Connectivity, integration, and next-generation computing are driving changes those involved with family office operations and technologies need to know.

Erin Hulse’s 10 Unexpected Years of Consulting Family Offices on Tech

Deviate News

Time flies when you’re having fun. We are celebrating Deviate’s 10-year anniversary, and throughout summer, we’re spotlighting some of our amazing team members that have been part of the journey.

WendyMcCoy’s career has been centered around technology to improve efficiency and outcomes across a wide range of industries and practical applications. In her day-to-day, user-centered design and design-focused thinking ensure that what she does for clients fully addresses the right problems and the highest success in the finish line to solutions.

Joann Penner has shifted from one side of the desk as an accountant, controller, and supervisor of financial teams to the other side of wealth tech, implementing accounting software and workflows. The efficiency and use of automation in the accounting cycle drives Joann’s passion and provides her with a great source of accomplishment.

Allie Gray’s expertise has been a fantastic addition to our team this year, helping Deviate’s clients navigate the Archway system. Previously, she worked for nearly seven years at SEI Archway on the Client Relations team and has since become an Archway System Consultant, helping groups like Deviate and our clients understand the software more thoroughly.

The Deviate Consulting Vendor Demos page now has 72 vendors and counting! Access to the site is exclusive to family offices who are embarking on a new technology search. There is no cost for vendors or family offices to participate.

Featured Demo Partner – Mantle | Private Assets. Modern Solutions.

Cap tables, employee stock option plans, board actions, and more — all in one seamless platform.
