Mission-critical guidance for new and
emerging managers
ABOUT THE EVENT
The Hedge Fund 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.
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 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 Hedge Fund European Emerging Managers Summit, hosted by Hedgeweek, is your bridge to a new understanding of each of the critical steps involved to successfully bring a hedge fund to market. There will also be time for networking and informal conversations with close peers and colleagues.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT HEDGEWEEK EVENTS
It was great and informative to hear from the panellists who discussed a broad range of essential topics for emerging managers. Will be back next year!
Dede Eyesan, Founder/Managing Partner, Jenga Investment Partners
The knowledge to consume, the people to meet and the venue itself was just brilliant. The panels and roundtable discussions did not just scratch the surface but went into as much detail as would possibly fit in the given time. I can highly recommend this format and will join the future events.
Fabian Fach, Managing Partner, Black Flower Capital GmbH
A productive use of a day for any emerging manager to listen to the learnings of teams who have gone or are going through the launch and growth process. You will leave this event with a few nuggets of new wisdom and a few helpful new connections.
Anthony Lawler, Chief Investment Officer and COO, Cadwyn Capital LLP
