PEI Operating Partners Human Capital Forum 2023 | PEI Media | 29 March 2023 | Convene, 117 W 46th St, New York, NY 10036, USA

Now in its second year in person, the Forum brings together an elite crowd of human capital value creators and operating partner talent specialists. It is the place to meet key players in the PE community and get a firm grasp on initiatives designed to transform operations, deliver growth, and drive value creation strategies through talent.

You’ll receive insight into the evolving talent market by experts who will share strategies and experiences. At this critical time in the economic cycle, you’ll uncover how leading firms achieve value creation through the “human capital operating partner.”

Agenda highlights:
• Think tanks led by operating partners for operating partners: talent value creation war rooms

• Women in PE & VC portfolio operations lunch discussion
• The modern C-suite: uncovering the right traits for current economic times
• And much more…
