Since its debut in 2008, the Women’s Private Equity Summit has become the “must-attend” major industry event for senior-level women in the private equity and venture capital industries. These accomplished women — a thoughtfully balanced audience of GPs, LPs, and advisors to the industry — attend the Summit to swap stories and information, initiate deals, and forge new relationships.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, we will be holding two Women’s Private Equity Summits in 2021. The first takes place virtually over two half-days on March 10th and 11th, and the second will take place at the fabulous Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, California from September 27 – 29, 2021, when we expect to have resumed in-person events. Both will feature moderated panel discussions and keynote dialogues followed by interactive Q&A sessions, as well as networking opportunities.

Virtual Women’s Private Equity Summit – March 10-11, 2021

The Virtual Summit will focus on how the industry has changed over the past year and how both LPs and GPs are thinking about moving forward. Leading industry professionals will discuss investing, fundraising, liquidity, co-investing, due diligence strategies, and the continued push for diversity, and focused sessions facilitated by leaders in each subject area will provide a small-group forum for an informative and in-depth look into trending topics in these sectors.

Networking with your peers has always been a key feature of our Summits and the virtual event will be no different. We appreciate that there are real challenges to networking virtually, but we have found creative ways to deliver this critical part of the event! Participants can connect with one another through 1:1 chat and video calls and join a virtual reception, where you can “table hop” with your peers.
