Concorde Investment Services, an independent broker-dealer and registered investment advisor based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, received two awards at ADISA’s 2026 Annual Conference & Trade Show, recognizing the firm’s work in alternative investments and an executive’s contributions to the industry.
Concorde was named the inaugural recipient of ADISA’s Allocator Champion (Firm) Award, while Sydney Hockaday, the firm’s managing director of marketing, received the association’s President’s Award.
The Allocator Champion Award recognizes firms that have advanced the evaluation and distribution of alternative investments through due diligence, financial advisor education and industry participation.
“Alternative investments require careful evaluation, and our financial professionals rely on us to do that work thoroughly,” said Danielle Delongchamp, president and CEO of Concorde Investment Services. “This recognition reflects our team’s investment in due diligence, education and our active engagement with ADISA.”
Hockaday received the President’s Award in recognition of her contributions to the alternative investments industry and support of ADISA’s initiatives. The award, selected by the association’s board president, honors individuals and organizations for professional achievements, industry service and contributions to the association.
“I am honored to receive ADISA’s President’s Award and grateful to the association for this recognition,” Hockaday said. “ADISA creates an important forum for education and collaboration across the alternative investments industry.”
The awards were presented during ADISA’s annual conference, which brings together approximately 1,000 professionals from the alternative investments industry for educational programming, networking and industry discussions.
