Event History
SuperReturn Middle East was first launched in Dubai in 2007.
Exploiting the same extraordinary recipe for success that has seen SuperReturn International in Europe grow to an incredible 1500 delegates in 10 years and an unsurpassed reputation, SuperReturn Middle East has been able to draw on an incredible and far-reaching marketing database as well as global contacts and superb research and production know-how.
Such a winning formula has led to a highly successful Hong Kong-based event, SuperReturn Asia, and now SuperReturn US and SuperReturn Emerging Markets have also been launched.
The first SuperReturn Middle East surpassed every expectation and brought 550 international and regional attendees of the highest quality to a much-lauded event in Dubai. Building on this "phenomenal" first outing, the 2008 event simply established SuperReturn Middle East as the largest, most prestigious, and most important gathering for all those concerned with Middle Eastern and North African private equity.
This second event drew an incredible 800 senior attendees to three full days of networking and discussion - including the largest sovereign wealth funds, LPs and others. And the enlarged agenda reflected not just the interests of private equity in the UAE, but also focussed on the major markets of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, through the pioneering leaders of the most important companies in those regions. And through the insights of incomparable global leaders, unmatched world vision and knowledge was brought to the region.
And if that weren't enough, world renowned academics and business leaders provided the highest level of brand new knowledge from the very best cutting edge research and entrepreneurial insight. Plus brilliantly hosted roundtable discussions provided a particular opportunity for face to face learning, networking and exchange that provided unique value to delegates.
SuperReturn Middle East's coverage of the whole North Africa and GCC markets, as well as Turkey and South Asia provides for a discussion of opportunities and challenges in a uniquely important and diverse region, as well as providing an international private equity event, based in the emergent city of Dubai, and with an audience of singularly powerful investors and sovereign wealth funds.
SuperReturn Middle East now offers a unique blend of& senior and authoritative regional and international speakers on the most topical questions of the day – to say nothing of the invaluable networking during coffee breaks, over lunch, during the dinner, the gala receptions and throughout. Add to that, brilliant formats such as plenary interviews, numerous panels, extended sessions, a masterlcass and the use of confidential electronic polling for interactive debate and live feedback. Such an amazing group of people and an incredible amount of value can be found from one single event.
Now that the global community and the private equity industry faces its biggest ever challenge, with some firms destined not to survive, this much lauded event offers real clarity into the road ahead and insights as to the optimal route map to navigate it. Added to that hundreds of invaluable contacts, which means your time could hardly be better spent.
Make sure you don't miss it.
