SPEAKING OPPORTUNITIES

The Private Equity European Emerging Managers Summit is aimed at management firms and funds in their early stages of development, as well as managers and funds operated by women and leaders from diverse backgrounds.


In this half day event, our mission is to create a series of conversations that will enable your firm or fund to be set for growth, success, and long-term security. Dealing with issues spanning operations, strategy, fund raising and compliance this event is designed for decision makers from across the leadership suite.


For any new fund manager, getting the planning right at the pre-launch and post-launch phases can potentially make the difference between success or costly failure. Through a series of in-depth panel discussions, presentations and breakout sessions, the event will lay out the main considerations for an engaged audience.


The Private Equity European Emerging Managers Summit, hosted by Private Equity Wire, is your bridge to a new understanding of each of the critical steps involved to successfully establish a business and bring new funds to market. There will also be time for networking and informal conversations with close peers and colleagues.
