Published membership thresholds, and how they have moved

189 of 185 organizations publish at least one membership criterion; 69 publish a numeric threshold — an age ceiling, a revenue or employee floor, a valuation, a net-worth or investable-asset minimum. This page sets every numeric threshold out by kind, highest first, and records the changes the database has captured.

Reading the pattern

Thresholds cluster by what an organization is about. CEO peer groups test the company — revenue, employees, valuation — and add an age ceiling where the organization is built for younger executives. Wealth communities test the person, in net worth or investable assets, and publish a floor precisely because it is the easiest way to keep a room consistent. Founder communities increasingly accept alternatives — capital raised, an exit — in place of revenue, which tells you what kind of company they expect. Where a threshold has moved in the period the database covers, it has moved upward. Data as of 14 October 2026.
