BOSTON, May 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Boston Private,
a leading provider of fully integrated wealth management, trust and
private banking services, announced today that Bert Jacobs, co-founder and CEO of The Life is
Good Company, will be the keynote speaker at its third annual
Private Partnership Conference. The conference is a three-day event
tailored specifically for private partnership CFOs, general counsel
and managing partners from across the country.
The conference will take place June
15-17 at Cape Cod's
Wequassett Resort and Golf Club. Registration and session details
are now available at www.bostonprivate.com.
Bert and his brother John embody the spirit of entrepreneurship
and commitment to a cause. The duo turned their passion for art
into a business, spending five years selling their wares in the
streets and from their van before landing on the three words that
would forever change the apparel industry: "life is good." The Life
is Good Company is now a $100 million
lifestyle brand dedicated to spreading the power of optimism. The
company donates 10 percent of its net profits to help children in
need. To date, the company has donated over $11 million, principally through Life is Good
products, events and community fundraising efforts.
"Bert is an inspiring entrepreneur and speaker, and we're
thrilled to welcome him to this year's conference," said
George Schwartz, president of Boston
Private Bank. "His passion, story and insight will undoubtedly be
well received by conference guests and help this year's event be an
even more engaging, informative and actionable experience."
The Private Partnership Conference brings attendees from across
the country together to network in an intimate setting. Guests can
participate in both small group roundtable discussions and larger
general sessions to discuss best practices, current trends and
issues affecting the industry. Select roundtable discussions will
qualify for continuing professional education (CPE) credit.
Concurrent sessions will be held throughout the conference, giving
