Hedge Fund Group Sees Rapid Growth


Some of you are members of and already know that this blog is connected to the Hedge Fund Group (HFG), a Linkedin.com networking group that shares advice, business leads and resources. The Hedge Fund Group (HFG) now has over 10,500 members. This group was just started 10 months ago now and is currently gaining 75 new members each day. Many members work within hedge funds and other are consultants, academics, students and investors. If you haven't already please join the Hedge Fund Group Group (HFG) by clicking here. Once you have joined please introduce yourself within the "New Member Introductions Thread" on HedgeFundMessageBoard.com.

Other threads you may be interested in keeping an eye on include:

The goal was to reach 15,000 members by the end of 2008 and it looks like we are well on track to do so. Once we reach 15,000 members the group will become much more organized and official with the launch of HedgeFundGroup.org.
  • We will continue to build our Board of Advisors which consists mainly of hedge funds and fund of hedge funds. We currently have 22 funds on the Board.
  • We will join forces with other hedge fund associations and law groups to hold networking events in 5 major cities where there is a high concentration of hedge funds.
  • We will select a couple of breakfast and lunch designations in New York where members can always mingle and meet others in a easy casual fashion.
  • A monthly newsletter will begin going out announcing industry-wide networking events regardless of whether they are organized directly through our group or not.
  • We will continue to develop the Certified Hedge Fund Professional (CHP) Designation Program.
  • We are looking for additional ways that we could expand this group and make it more valuable for everyone involved. If you have some ideas please email them to Richard Wilson at Richard@RichardCWilson.com.
  • Regardless of where it goes I would like to always stress that the group is a place where everyone is welcome and advice is freely given for the benefit of the group or a group member. If you are looking to be close vested or spamy please keep moving along.

As always please feel free to reprint or forward this post along to anyone who might be interested in learning more about networking in the hedge fund industry.
