Gaining the Edge – 2016 Hedge Fund Marketing Leadership Summit  is taking place in NYC on April 28th at the Roosevelt Hotel. We believe it will be one of the largest Hedge Fund conferences in North America in 2016.  100% of the profits will be donated to non-profit organizations that benefit children. Hedge Fund Care and World Pediatric Project will be the main beneficiaries of the 2016 event.

As you may know, Agecroft Partners is the co-organizer of Hedgeopolis New York. In addition, Agecroft Partners helped organize a marketing forum at Bloomberg Headquarters earlier this year, which sold out with over 450 registrations in 48 hours. The targeted audience of our upcoming event will consist of hedge fund CEOs, COOs, and heads of marketing. The focus of the seminar is “How to Enhance the Asset Raising Capability of Your Hedge Fund Organization.” The event will last from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm and will have 3 hours of networking time consisting of two 30 minute coffee breaks and a 2 hour cocktail reception. We are still building out the agenda, but have already confirmed the following speakers from many of the top prime brokers in the industry:
