The Hedgeweek US Summit takes place in one week. Organisers report more than 200 hedge fund managers and over 100 allocators have registered for the one-day conference.
The programme opens with a keynote by Marko Papic, chief investment strategist at BCA Research, who will address what the organisers call America’s current macro paradox. After the keynote the agenda splits into two parallel streams covering investment alpha and operational alpha.
Organisers expect attendance from more than 180 senior delegates, including C-suite executives, founders, partners, managing directors and directors. Firms represented range from under $100 million to more than $100 billion in assets.
Panels will examine geopolitical volatility and portfolio discipline with Jeffrey Rosenberg of BlackRock, Dan Greenhaus of Solus Alternative Asset Management and Tara Hariharan of NWI Management. A session on agentic AI in systematic investing features Raj Dua of Fasanara Capital, Dan Gelernter of RG Niederhoffer Capital Management and Nishant Gurnani of Versor Investments.
Speakers will also address portfolio construction in a structurally noisier world, with contributions from David Stemerman of CenterBook Partners, Joe Armao of Galaxy Fintech Fund and Ryan Kanaley of Overbrook Management Corporation. Operational discussions on fund operations, AI and infrastructure include Dean Schaffer of Lightkeeper, Jeffrey Sexton of Demeter Tactical Investments and Yarin Kirchin of Beacon Harbor Capital.
A fireside conversation on allocator behaviour brings together Emily Hodges of J.P. Morgan Alternative Asset Management and Michelle Noyes, head of Americas at the Alternative Investment Management Association. The closing panel gathers investment heads from Aksia, NEPC, PAAMCO Prisma and J.P. Morgan Alternative Asset Management.
Organisers say a limited number of complimentary passes remain available to qualifying hedge fund managers and allocators. Registration is open for attendees seeking approval.
