The Future of Equity Investing
Join the discussion on the future of private equity investing with your peers at the WPEP Annual Dinner. This is a MEMBERS ONLY event that brings together alumni in the private equity industry for an evening of knowledge, insight and networking. This year we present a panel of distinguished alumni who are leading investors in the LP, LBO and Venture Capital sectors, offering a broad perspective on the rapidly changing environment in equity investing and how it may impact the model for the long-term.
Discussion Leader:
Henny Sender, Financial Times
Speakers:
Jack Daly, Managing Director, Goldman Sachs’ Principal Investment Area (“PIA”)
Josh Kopelman, Managing Partner, First Round Capital
Katie Stokel, Managing Director, Abbott Capital
Join in the discussion!
- Can VC investing continue to progress absent the return of a healthy IPO market?
- Will institutional mega shops continue to garner more and more investment? What is in store for new managers trying to spin out new funds?
- Did late 2008 and 2009 affect the long-term mind-set of institutional LP's as it relates to PE investing? How will that play out?
- How will the alternative asset class change over time in terms of number of managers, return profiles and opportunities?
