Panel Discussions
INVESTING INTERNATIONALLY
In the search for returns, investors are no longer bound by borders. They increasingly seek investments around the world to diversify returns and fund increasingly diverse ideas. The Investing Internationally panel will follow our professional guests as they explore insights into how capital decisions in a targeted market get made at the highest level. With the help of our moderator, our panel will discuss future of global trends that we can expect to see in the private investing space going forward.
INVESTING IN HEALTHCARE SERVICES
The Investing in Healthcare Services panel will ask professionals, from early stage venture to growth equity and private equity investment strategies, to offer their perspectives and experiences from investing in healthcare services. The panel will discuss how private capital can accelerate company growth across different specialties and products to achieve attractive exits, while delivering high quality, value based care amid challenges inherent to the U.S. healthcare system.
EARLY STAGE VENTURE INVESTING
Historically, early-stage investors have taken a 20% ownership stake during first round funding. However, in recent years, early stage financing has grown increasingly competitive, raising the concentration of equity ownership and the amount of capital invested to historic highs. The Early Stage Venture Investing panel will explore the growing popularity of angel and seed investing, the implications of early stage investing, and how varying fund types view and tackle this burgeoning sector.
