Hey, I’d like to welcome you to another episode of Mission Matters. My name is Adam Torres. And today I’m in Las Vegas, Nevada, and I’m at the Jets in Capital event. And I’m here today with one of the founders, Jordan Hutchinson. Jordan, man, this event, welcome. Thank you. So first off Jets in Capital, big shout out to Kathleen, who has been telling me about this event for, I don’t know, maybe one, two years now.
Jordan, it’s been quite some time and she’s like, you have to go out there. So finally we made it and Mission Matters is happy to be here. Jordan, first off. Just to start off, please Jetson capital. How was this event founded? Yeah. So I got sick of going to other events out there that necessarily didn’t have enough investors or family offices.
And frankly, a lot of them boring. And I said, okay, I want to start doing events that had actual investors at them and that were a little more fun. And what we found is the fun things actually attract the investors. So instead of doing a hotel or a convention center, we said, let’s start doing events and private jet hangers.
And for some reason, everyone wanted to come out. Everyone was really excited about the notion of coming to an event in a private hangar with a bunch of planes and cars. And you can’t see it here, but the cars part, like I’ve seen all the cars. They’re coming in. This is kind of before behind the scenes, but I saw the cars.
It’s sick. And I feel like when you’re talking about the investors, what kind of individuals is it appropriate to come to this event? Like, who are you looking for? We are. The main thing is what is your agenda? Are you coming to this event to raise capital for a deal that you have? Usually that’s the lesser category.
We try and have a small fraction of the room that are people with deals. The majority of the people in the room, we try and have them be people that are allocating. Now, I don’t care if you’re writing quarter million dollar checks or 30 million checks, as long as you’re there to find deals. And to deploy Kappa.
That’s the important thing. So are you coming to these events to allocate and to find deals? So how long have the events been going on? We’ve been doing them for about two and a half years now and they’ve grown. I mean, what do you attribute some of that success to? Genuine relationships. I make sure that every investor and even fundraiser that comes to these events, I usually have a zoom call with them and get to know them.
So I try and know everybody in the room and I try and let them know, Hey, I don’t care if we do transactions together or whatever. We’re inviting you to come to these events because you’re a high quality person and we want you in the room. That’s the priorities. Genuine relationships. Now I know the location, I know the theme.
Jetson Capital. We got that. But locations, geography wise, I know we’re in Las Vegas today. Correct me if I’m wrong, I think you’ve done Utah and I was on the website. We’ve done a couple in Utah, a couple in Texas. This is our first one in Vegas. We’ve also done a few of our smaller events. It’s in Florida and we’re going to be actually announcing the next Jetson capital in Florida tonight.
So that’s what I’m talking about, doing them all over. And so looking at the vision going forward for the event, I was like, talk to me, like a lot of entrepreneurs, a lot of investors, a lot of business owners that watch this. What’s the big vision? Like what’s the, you know, five years, 10 years down the line.
I’m like, Jordan, man, I remember that. Like, what’s the, what’s the big, this good question. The goal with these is to turn them into the most premier networking events for investors and high net worth. Your love is lit. You and I are taking over the world. Oh, I love it. I love it. We got to, we got to drop in from Kelly.
This is my partner. Yes, Kelly. Oh. This is my partner, Kelly. No, obviously. I tell everyone to get in here. She plans the events. You can’t walk away now. Carol, Carol. I tell everyone she plans the events. I take the credit. Yeah. So I’m the one that’s inviting the investors. She makes all the magic happen and bringing these things to you.
I love it. I love it. Last question, Jordan. Please. People want to follow up. They want to learn more. They want to connect and attend one day. How do they apply for attendance? Go to Jetson capital. com. That’s the best way of doing it. You’re on camera. That’s why I tried to tell you to stop, but you’re here now.
Yep. Come on. My lovely wife, Kristen. Oh, hello. Hi Kristen. This is, this is what I like. We’re all, none of this is getting edited out by the, I love it. This is the best part. This is family.

Nice to meet you guys. This Yeah, no, this is wonderf here. Why do you think? I the other half? Why do yo have been so successful? and we’re able to make a in the world. We always h
You’re talking about the charity part. You figure we have enough investors in the room that are making money off of each other. Let’s find a way to benefit people outside of this room. So we always incorporate a charity. We’re going to be presenting once a night that’s in the anti trafficking space to say, hey everyone, let’s gather together and see who we can help.
Yeah. And see if we can benefit the foundation there, man. I’m sorry. This has been my favorite interview of the year and we’re starting in January. Let’s see. But we had two hopping guests. I’m in. All right. So for everybody watching, just so you know, we’ll what we’re definitely going to put the links in the show notes so that you can go check out Jetson Capitol and you can apply to attend.
And Jordan, man, I’m looking forward to tonight. Thank you for having us. I’m excited. Thank you. Appreciate you.
