Dear Alumni,                                                                              
You are invited to an online evening panel discussion hosted by the INSEAD Private Equity Club (IPEC) on June 29, 2020.

State Of The Private Equity Industry And COVID-19’s Impact On European PE Funds’ Portfolio Management And Investment Strategy
June 29, 2020 Online
The global effort to mitigate the impact of the Coronavirus has undoubtedly been affecting all of us personally and professionally. This virtual event will examine its impact on the private equity industry in Europe, featuring guest speakers Christophe De Vusser, Partner, Board Member and Head of Bain & Company’s EMEA Private Equity practice and Rolf-Magnus Weddigen (MBA 92D), Chairman of Bain & Company’s Private Equity practice in DACH.

Drawing on Bain & Company’s latest Covid-19 insights and Global Private Equity Report 2020, the talk will focus on portfolio management and investing in this challenging environment. Christophe and Rolf’s presentation will be followed by a panel discussion where they will be joined by two PE practitioners and INSEAD alumni, Arthur Brothag (MBA 06J), Partner at Apax, and Verena Mohaupt (MBA 96D), Partner at Findos Investor.

This is the third edition of this event since 2016, where INSEAD alumni and guests gain industry insights and perspectives from leaders in Bain & Company’s private equity practice, the leading consulting partner to the PE industry and its key stakeholders.

The event will be held online. Whilst enabling IPEC Switzerland to comply with public health restrictions for large gatherings, this format also provides us with the opportunity to extend this invitation to alumni beyond the Swiss community, and to current INSEAD students on our campuses around the world. We look forward to all of you joining us for this event.
