Creating Long-Term Value: The Next Era of Private Equity (Invite only)

-

In this private session, leaders in private equity will discuss how they’re approaching investing in today’s more uncertain environment. With higher interest rates and tougher competition, the conversation will focus on where they’re still finding opportunities, how they’re improving the companies they own, and why alignment—especially with management and employees—is becoming more important. This candid dialogue offers a rare look into how top-tier firms are adapting strategies to sustain performance across cycles.
