Review of SuperInvestor 2009 that took place in November 2009


What made SuperInvestor's 9th annual private equity conference such a worthwhile few days?

Besides superlative networking with more than 650 of private equity's finest ( including 180 powerful global LPs ) SuperInvestor 2009 proved itself once again to be the foremost thought-leadership conference for LP / GP relations

  • In 2009 we doubled the opportunities for delegates to meet dozens of LPs in a structured way and participants lapped it up. Over two separate sessions of Speed Networking, attendees met dozens of investors face-to-face, shook hands, swapped business cards, introduced themselves and explained their business, before moving on to the next one. Everyone left with a fist full of business cards and a list of great prospects to follow up from the office. Fast, efficient and fun - where else could you meet with so many quality prospective investors so efficiently?

    •  

  • Brand new in 2009, we introduced the Strategy and Practice Stream for maximum insight and learning. Bringing together the very best in debate and interaction, brilliant panels tackled the most critical challenges facing GPs and then joined participants in face to face discussion - to bring about a real exchange of ideas, learning and critical understanding. A brilliant innovation to add to SuperInvestor's superb thought leadership and value.

    •  

  • A brand new agenda of the most important themes and very hottest discussion topics was enjoyed by delegates in the format of interactive roundtable discussions. 20 leading speakers hosted face-to-face debate with participants in two hour-long sessions of learning, interface, networking and fun. And as champagne was served throughout, these brilliant discussions provided a perfect beginning to the evening's networking drinks reception.  
  • For the first time ever, the Secondaries Summit provided a single day bringing together the leading players with investors and experts. ALPINVEST, HERMES PRIVATE EQUITY, RREEF, CPP INVESTMENT BOARD, GREENPARK CAPITAL, HARBOURVEST and ADAMS STREET PARTNERS were amongst those who debated the challenges and reality of opportunity in this red-hot market in one intensive and value- rich day.

650+ Attendees At Europe's Premier Private Equity LP Relations Conference

The 9th annual SuperInvestor proved itself once again to be the must-attend event for private equity LP/GP relations. Not only did 650 international LPs and GPs attend the 2009 landmark Paris event - despite uncertain economic times - but for the first time, took full advantage of brilliant pre-event e-networking with "MySuperInvestor".

For the first time ever, the brilliant innovation of e-networking known as My-SuperInvestor provided attendees with the entire delegate list ahead of the event and the means to make contact, make introductions and set up meetings ahead of the conference. Hundreds of delegates used it to arrange a diary of meetings throughout the event, do business, and maximise the value of every moment spent.

And if that weren't enough, the Spot-Me networking device at the event provided state of the art hand held electronica to allow delegates to find target contacts, identify them and communicate with them on-site.

Superb interaction and debate was assured by the very best chairmen and moderators, including Jon Moulton, BETTER CAPITAL, Jonny Maxwell, ALLIANZ PRIVATE EQUITY PARTNERS,  Hanneke Smits, ADAMS STREET PARTNERS, Jeremy Coller, COLLER CAPITAL, Rod Richards, GRAPHITE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, John Singer, ADVENT INTERNATIONAL EUROPE and Christopher Hunter, CAMBRIDGE ASSOCIATES. Add to that a brilliant variety of formats including electronic polling, roundtable discussions, a strategy and practice stream and a superb quiz and you have learning and insights available nowhere else.

And if that weren't enough, an unbeatable line up of the brightest minds in the industry sharing their experiences, their thoughts and their vision, including: Derek Murphy, PSP INVESTMENTS, David Roux, SILVER LAKE, Kurt Bjorklund, PERMIRA ADVISORS, George Siguler, SIGULER GUFF, Guy Hands, TERRA FIRMA, Chris Masterson, MONTAGU PRIVATE EQUITY and guest speakers, Josh Lerner, HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL, Ed Altman, STERN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS NYU and entrepreneur Nick Basing, PARAMOUNT RESTAURANTS. In all 200 brilliant speakers came together at SuperInvestor 2009 - a unique brains trust of brilliant minds, in one place at one time. 

In uncertain times, what could be more valuable - superb contacts AND superlative insights. To enquire about sponsorship opportunities for 2010 please contact Brenda Cunningham on +44 20 7017 7219 or bcunningham@icbi.co.uk.
