  • Welcome to the 12Th Annual INSEAD Private Equity Conference
    Welcome to the 12th Annual INSEAD Private Equity Conference INSEAD welcomes you to the 12th Annual Private Equity Conference. The conference, inaugurated in 2003, has become the most successful private equity and venture capital event hosted by a European academic institution. With over 1,500 alumni working in the industry worldwide, INSEAD’s presence in the private equity community is well-recognized. This conference is a gathering amongst leading practitioners, academics and the INSEAD community to debate the forces shaping the private equity industry. We are delighted to host an impressive and diverse group of experienced industry professionals here on INSEAD Europe Campus. Since the financial crisis, one of the strongest trends in private equity has been increased focus on value creation. This year’s theme, “How to achieve alpha in the current environment,” aims to delve into the topic of generating returns through operational change, and assess the implications of this trend for the future of private equity. Our keynote speakers, leveraged buyouts and operational excellence panels will explore the topic of value creation deeper. Beyond value creation, the industry is further being shaped by a number of different dynamics and intense competition. To further develop the main theme, we have lined up a focused range of panels and have assembled a diverse group of outstanding panelists and moderators for you. Our panels will attempt to give an update on the current state in different parts of the industry, such as distressed investing, infrastructure and real assets, emerging strategies and limited partner relationships. The annual conference is organized by student and alumni members of the INSEAD Private Equity Club, Global Private Equity Initiative (INSEAD faculty body focused on research in Private Equity industry), Alumni Relations and Student Life offices.

Private equity firms on the fundraising trail are not the only GPs1 cognizant of this trend; cost-savings potential, competitor activity and regulation all contribute to the rising awareness of ESG factors in investment committee decision-making.2 The focus on ESG considerations has developed alongside investors’ growing appreciation of the impact that nonfinancial factors can have on value creation, long-term company performance, and the health of society at large.
