The 12th Annual International Private Equity & Venture Capital Summit - NEW VENUE FOR 2009!

Due to overwhelming feedback from delegates at the 2008 event, the world's favorite private equity conference is moving to Berlin, where the splendid Intercontinental Hotel will house the entire event. The Intercontinental is a 5-star landmark hotel in the city centre, with a very central location minutes from the government quarter, historic centre & shopping district. The conference will take over the entire hotel which will enhance networking by making use of all the hotel’s bars, cafes, conference rooms and seating areas for meetings.

Creating Opportunity Out Of Adversity

The credit crunch is transforming the industry, and, given the current climate of economic turmoil, it will be critical for private equity heavyweights to come together to discuss the future of their industry. SuperReturn 2009 will provide a crucial and timely meeting place for all the most outspoken private equity leaders to pool their knowledge and power in order to steer the industry’s forthcoming direction:

  • Where Is The Industry Headed?
  • What Strategies Will Determine The Future?
  • How Can GPs Continue To Deliver Alpha & Maintain Investor Confidence?
  • How Can Opportunity Be Created Out Of Adversity?
  • How Should GPs Invest Creatively While Avoiding Strategic Drift?
  • Who Stands To Prosper Through A Downturn?
  • How Will The Industry Continue To Thrive?

All these questions and much more will be debated by the most influential members of the private equity world, so don’t miss the opportunity to benefit from their collective bold and innovative solutions to the challenges that lie ahead.
