Chicago Event



On Wednesday this week we had our event at the W Hotel in Chicago, it went well and we had just a few under 50 professionals attend this event. I spoke for about 15 minutes on the important of the slow sell and how an influence principle of Robert Cialdini can assist marketers in raising capital for their investment funds. Bilal Malik spoke about the changes the industry has seen over the past 12 months and what the passing of the Hedge Fund Transparency Act could mean for the industry. We have recorded both of these speeches and they are being loaded into the Video Vault tool within Hedge Fund Premium next week.

We are seeking feedback on this event and also gearing up for our Moscow event later this month, our Boston event in October, New York event in November and Dallas event in December. All of our events consist of:
  • A few short 15-20 minute speakers typically sharing lessons on capital raising, operations best practices, risk management, or compliance
  • Food
  • Drinks
  • At least 2 hours of open networking between fund managers, consultants and marketers in the industry.
Thanks to everyone who came, see you again next time.
