Join 250+ senior allocators and private market investors who shape how institutional capital is deployed for candid, off-the-record conversations at the 2026 CIO Alternative Investments Summit hosted by the Wharton PE & VC Alumni Association and the Kellogg School of Management.

The event is centered on substantive discussions and peer networking focused on the key issues shaping institutional investing today, with keynote conversations, CIO panels, breakout sessions, and curated networking.

Several important factors distinguish the CIO Summit:

• LPs and GPs receive thought-provoking content and ideas in an intimate, engaging environment;
• An invitation only, peer setting of senior level decision makers;
• Closed to the media to encourage candid discussion;
• Hosted by two top-tier university-based organizations, the Summit welcomes all institutionally-sized investors regardless of school affiliation; and
• A no service provider environment outside of an intentionally limited number of sponsors.

Who is invited to register: Institutionally sized investors who are GPs (such as Private Equity, Venture Capital, Private Credit, Hedge Fund, and other alternative investment strategies or LPs, (including SFO, Endowment, Foundation, Pensions, Insurance or Sovereign Wealth Funds). 

Investment professionals from all schools are welcome to attend.
