BY INVITE ONLY
An Evening with Stephanie Drescher - The State of the Private Equity Sector
What lies ahead for the private equity sector with the anticipation of potential deregulation under the new administration? Will a rising stock market retain the interest of institutional investors or will they seek to diversify in alternative investments like private equity? Stephanie Drescher reviews the outlook for the private equity sector and where global investors might be headed. Chat with fellow senior practitioners over drinks and enjoy an intimate conversation between Drescher and Jane Abitanta, Board Member of 100 Women in Finance. Space is limited. 

This event preceeds an event for NextGen New York members to also hear from Stephanie Drescher and discuss navigating the alternatives sector in a roundtable discussion setting. We encourage your participation as mentors and if you are able to remain for the 7:00 - 8:30 PM session, please email Alexis Belladonna.
