Agenda
Join us for opening remarks by Louisa Roberts, Head of Aladdin Client Engagement, Australia & New Zealand, BlackRock.
The Australian private capital markets have not been immune to the global slowdown in fundraising and shifting asset valuations. However, the dynamic market has shown its resilience in recent years. Join Preqin Research Insights’ Angela Lai as she shares the latest data on private market fundraising, performance and trends for Australia and explores the relationship between the Australia and the global alternatives industry.
As the Australian private capital markets continue to evolve, the role of private equity in driving innovation is likely to grow. While innovation and data offer significant advantages, private markets still face challenges in harnessing their full potential. In this session, industry experts delve into recent trends in investing into innovative industries as well as how private market players are embracing technology to drive transparency, strengthen investment and fee due diligence as well as solve data challenges.
A panel of industry leaders come together to discuss their views on the state and outlook of the private markets in Australia, which strategies and asset classes are attracting their interest, and what opportunities and challenges are top of mind for fund managers and investors in the year ahead.
Join us in the foyer for a networking reception, open for all attendees and speakers.
