“It attracted some great fund managers, I enjoyed meeting a lot of people and connecting with current colleagues.”

“The quality of the individuals who were selected to attend was excellent. In addition, the hosts did an excellent job not only moderating a panel, but also highlighting the personal relationships and/or shared experiences of speakers. I also liked the separation between the session section and the outside section such that if people did want to talk, instead of distracting the sessions, they could engage outside and then come back in easily. The space was large enough that it felt classy, yet was small enough that it felt safe and intimate.”
