Save the dates for the 15th Annual Institutional Investment Conference, April 26-29, 2009 at the Ritz-Carlton in San Francisco.
Drawing upon the success of our 2008 conference, the 15th Annual Institutional Investment Conference will focus squarely on the growing influence of institutional investors. What types of funds are these investors interested in? Which strategies attract them, and which scare them off? What can institutions learn from more experienced alts investors? What role should consultants and funds of funds play in the investment process - if any? What organizational changes do managers need to make to market to and service this client base? What can they learn from their counterparts in private equity and traditional asset management?
Drawing heavily from the Bay Area's burgeoning investment community, as well from around the world, this conference will feature speakers from leading hedge funds and fund-of-funds; investment officers from pensions, endowments and foundations; investment consultants; and family offices.
