Rainmaker of the year

Celebrating the Best Capital Raisers in the Industry

Every year, this industry celebrates deal teams, portfolio managers, and fund performance. The people who actually raise the capital that makes all of it possible? Almost never recognized.

Dakota is changing that. Rainmaker of the Year is a new, community-voted awards program honoring the best fundraisers in the business - the professionals who build the relationships and close the capital that powers every strategy, every firm, and every fund. Wherever you raise capital, this recognition is for you.

Why Nominate Someone

» Built for the people who raise the money. Deal teams and allocators already have their rankings. This is the first built for fundraisers.
» Community-voted, not vendor-picked. Winners are decided by the industry - allocators, LPs, and fellow fundraisers who've seen the work firsthand
» Open to the whole industry. Ten categories span every channel and career stage - no matter your strategy, firm size, or years in the business.
» Real recognition. Winners are featured across Dakota's network, Linkedin, podcast, and website. WONJIN

Nominations are reviewed on a rolling basis. Selected advisors are added to the Dakota 500 and notified directly. There's no cost to nominate, and you can nominate as many advisors as you genuinely believe deserve it.
