Just reiterating some thoughts while it is fresh on my mind.

After now doing this for 3 years I ultimately think our sweet spot if
we want to raise capital for funds or direct investments via the BD is
international money into US investments and US HNW, family office or
multi family office investments into domestic or international
projects (less funds and more direct investments).

I don't think institutional investors is necessarily the sweet spot.
They are very picky and go through consultants and it takes a long
time.  The only institutional investors I would look at are PE funds,
Hedge Funds and other financial institutions but we can handle those
on our own.

I think we have built up the international investor base and can grow
that on our own.   Where we need a better network is someone who knows
the family office world.   If we had capital I'd look to hire two reps
with that network.  A Dan McHale on steroids.   We get a lot of great
opportunities but we don't really have a place to take them.

Preaching to the choir I am sure but just some thoughts.
