Are you looking to enhance collaboration with VC or PE investors?
Following a successful event earlier this year, we are once again partnering with VantagePoint to bring you the opportunity to engage with PE and VC investors and discuss how to nurture collaborative innovation.
Our expert panel has been confirmed and we are excited to announce we will be joined by Sumeet Shah, Caitlin Herling and Ashley Vukovits, who have a wealth of varied experience in investing in the finance, technology and start-up space. We will also be holding a Q&A session where you'll have the chance to ask any questions to our esteemed panel.
The panel will be exploring:
The value that VC and PE firms and CFOs can bring when working in a successful partnership
The importance of positioning your finance function as a key priority in this collaboration
How to overcome challenges surrounding innovation and growth in tech
How to build a successful business model to ensure a solid upward growth trajectory.
Taking place at Betaworks in the Meatpacking District, join us at this exclusive event to network with industry experts, CFOs and investors and enjoy free pizza (vegan and gluten free options will be available).
