Why the UK-GCC Private Capital Investment Summit
Investor-led
Built around the investors in the room: asset managers, SWFs, family offices, LPs and GPs.
GCC capital in London
One of the few London summits focused on bringing Gulf investors together with UK, European and US managers and companies.
Selective, not mass-market
Sponsors and partners are selected for their relevance to our investors, and places are deliberately limited.
One focused day
Panels, networking and an evening reception, without a week of travel.
How to choose the right conference
Who attends
Check whether the investors or clients you want to meet will actually be there, not just other vendors.

Focus
Match the event to your strategy: private equity, real estate, infrastructure, wealth or technology.
Cost of meeting
Compare the cost of sponsorship or a ticket with the number of relevant meetings you can expect.
