During Private Equity Summit 2026, we will address one central question:
What will matter most for value creation and exits in 2026-2028?
After a decade of abundant liquidity and supportive macroeconomic conditions, the industry has entered a more demanding phase. Success is no longer determined by scale alone, but by strategic focus, deep sector expertise and disciplined execution, particularly when it comes to value creation and exits.
Longer holding periods and a constrained exit environment are fundamentally reshaping how firms approach value creation. With fewer opportunities to rely on rapid exits or multiple expansion, value is increasingly driven by operational depth, organic growth, and active ownership over extended time horizons.
In an increasingly competitive and saturated landscape, differentiation is essential. Specialists appear to be gaining ground but is specialization the only path to sustainable outperformance?
We look forward to welcoming you for a forward-looking and substantive discussion on the future of Private Equity and the new playbook shaping the years ahead.
