Global Hedge Fund Summit: Date Change

Institutional Investor/Alpha Hedge announced today that their flagship conference, The Global Hedge Fund Summit, held each year in Bermuda, will take place May 2-4, 2010.

The Global Hedge Fund Summit, now entering its 16th year, has been traditionally held in the Fall, but will now take place each Spring in Bermuda. Past keynote speakers have included industry legends and leading economists including Alan Greenspan, Michael Bloomberg, Julian Robertson, Martin Feldstein and Alan Blinder.

The 2008 Global Hedge Fund Summit welcomed more than 80 investors to the island. With many of the conference’s most loyal investors requesting the date change, record investor turnout is predicted in 2010.

“We are excited about holding the conference next May – our investors originally requested we move the dates and we wanted to make sure we honored that request. Their presence is incredibly important to us and we are thrilled that they are fully on board to participate in this conference. It is also a beautiful time to be in Bermuda and safely away from the hurricane season.” said Lisa Yao, Program Director for Institutional Investor/Alpha Hedge Conferences.

As the Bermuda event will now take place each spring, the Institutional Investment conference traditionally held each spring in San Francisco, will now move to the fall. The next event in San Francisco will take place in September 2010.
