Agenda
As we continue to transform and build on our successes while navigating through market uncertainties, Hedge Funds Today Forum agenda shares a thoughtful curation that puts the latest trends, developments, and innovations taking place across the industry.
HFT Forum 23 is designed to provide hedge fund executives with a candid and closed-door platform to come together and explore the wealth of opportunity the region provides them and how to leverage the enabling and forward-looking policies.
Agenda
Overview
As Hedge funds seek to generate alpha in industry, they’re shaping to be more and more complex. This improved complexity is leading to a lot more data being generated and analysed. As a result, to capture success hedge funds need technology capable of more complex data analytics
Industry leaders believe that fund managers who don’t invest in the technology could get left behind and even with the growing complexities there may seem to be a continued growth in demand for outsourcing as the need for data and digitized processes increases.
Along with the latest trends and developments, the summit will attract innovation and technology partners who provide insights into further business transformation for increased hedge fund performances.
