On Tuesday, June 9, 2026, the private equity community gathered during this edition of Private Equity Summit at KPMG in Amstelveen.

The central theme of this year's summit was clear: Focus, Value & the New PE Playbook. With longer holding periods, a constrained exit market, and an end to easy liquidity, over 200 PE professionals gathered at KPMG in Amstelveen to answer one key question: what will drive value creation and successful exits in 2026–2028?

The answer that emerged: success is no longer determined by scale alone. Strategic focus, deep sector expertise, and disciplined execution are the defining factors for firms looking to outperform in the years ahead.

Thank you to all participants, speakers, and partners for an inspiring day!
