Peer group for multimillionaires grows in Sarasota, Tampa

Executive and attorney Wendi Chapman worked for organizations in San Francisco and Washington, D.C., for some 20 years before relocating to Sarasota. Stops were as diverse as vice president of the San Francisco Marathon/Berkley Half-Marathon and the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation. 

That varied work experience has set up Chapman nicely for her latest role: chair of the Sarasota chapter of Tiger 21. The New York City-based organization is a global peer membership group for ultra-high-net worth entrepreneurs, investors and executives. (One membership requirement is having at least $20 million in investable assets.) Chapman, in her position, is a connector, adviser and organizer for the exclusive and confidential group, which, she says, is like a “personal board of directors” for members.
