We know that the private markets industry is based on knowledge & trust. Success hinges on fostering long-term partnerships for investment. But the industry, to a large extent, is very private. So the need is vital for a trusted forum in which industry professionals can shape best practice, establish and deepen business networks and initiate new investments.
Currently industry events are too often delivered as a ‘one size fits all’ experience, in uninspiring settings, by people who have little understanding of the industry and no stake in its long-term success.
Our vision is to be a disruptive force within the private markets conference industry, establishing a ‘gold standard’ for events. Outperform forums are not your usual mass-market conference.
Our guiding philosophy is what matters is who you meet. The event has strict limits on the numbers, seniority and types of attendees. It has a 75% invite-only approach to provide an exclusive, relaxed environment in which you meet the people you need to.
Over the past 15 years we have seen how private markets industry has become more sophisticated and grown. With the maturation and increased sophistication of the market, the need for a more nuanced and sophisticated event experience is all too clear. Outperform forums have been developed based on this need and provides you with a distinctive content and networking environment to service the more nuanced ecosystem.
That’s how you outperform.
We have an obsessive devotion to curating the highest calibre of attendees, education and knowledge sharing. The Outperform series creates an exclusive private markets community experience.
Outperform provides you with the forum you want to be part of.
