PartnerConnect East 2020 | PEI Media | 16 March 2020 | Hyatt Regency Boston, 1 Ave de Lafayette, Boston, MA 02111, USA

For 31 years, PartnerConnect East has brought together the most influential private equity and venture capital professionals for two nights of networking and a day and a half of high-level dialogue and debate.

Recognized for creating an invaluable ecosystem for the industry & led by the award-winning journalists at Buyouts Insider, PartnerConnect East 2020 will feature 2 tracks: Buyouts East and Venture Capital East

The PartnerConnect experience centers around productive networking with the right people. Convening over 400+ investment industry practitioners, including 200 LPs and 200 fund managers, bankers and lenders.

As well as benefitting from the forward-thinking educational opportunities, the conference offers our unique ExecConnect program, hosting over 400 private one-on-one meetings between capital providers, fund managers, independent sponsors, and family offices. Moving from our LP-GP meetings program, you will now have more flexibility to create additional interactive meetings. Family offices are invited to meet with other family offices. LPs are encouraged to meet with other LPs. And as always LPs and GPs can start the conversation to see if they are a good match. Since inception, we’ve organized over 11,000 meetings, through which billions of equity capital have been committed by LPs to fund managers.

What better way to build and bolster industry relationships and forge the partnerships for the next chapter in your business’s growth. We look forward to hosting you and the PE community at what we anticipate will be the most talked about the conference this coming Spring.
