BOCCONI STUDENTS ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS SYMPOSIUM
18 - 19 November 2013 OUR MISSION
The Bocconi Students’ Alternative Investments Symposium (BSAIS) is a two-day, student organised Symposium with the aim to bridge the world of Private Equity & Hedge Funds with Academia. BSAIS will be held on November 18th and 19th, 2013 in Milan, Italy for the first time, on the Bocconi University Campus. Bocconi University is the leading institution located in the heart of southern-Europe’s economic and financial capital – Milan. BSAIS is organised by the Bocconi Students’ Alternative Investments Society and aims to foster the dialogue between international leaders in the alternative investment industry and the brightest students interested in it. The aim of BSAIS is educational – cutting edge speakers will present and debate their view in panel discussions and keynotes – in such students have the opportunity to learn about the alternative asset management industry. Students can enroll in real-industry workshops, form valuable relationships with other students and network with professionals to enhance their career prospects in the Private Equity & Hedge Fund industry. BSAIS serves as a platform for internationalism – we encourage dedicated undergraduate, master, MBA and PhD students from all over the world to register for a place at BSAIS. The Bocconi Students’ Alternative Investment Society is committed to attract students who are passionate about the management of alternative investments and are keen on developing a deep understanding of these fast-paced industries. Our main focus is to educate our members and create a platform that enables our members to network with like-minded students and leading-edge industry professionals so that they can realise their career ambitions. Organising the Bocconi Students’Alternative Investment Symposium (BSAIS) is the necessary outcome of our mission and the principles we believe in.
