GCVI Summit 2024 | Global Corporate Venturing | 12 March 2024 | Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel And Spa On Del Monte Golf Course, 1 Old Golf Course Rd, Monterey, CA 93940, USA

This global event has proven to be the biggest dedicated gathering of corporate venture capital and C-suite innovation leadership and is regularly quoted as ‘‘the CVC event’’.

Giving over 800 attendees three days of unrivalled networking opportunities, knowledge transfer sessions and as many 1-to-1 private meetings as your diary will allow - the Summit is not to be missed if you’re looking to develop your venture unit, build one, or do business with those who do.
