AOconVO

These short small-group sessions are designed to facilitate the exchange of ideas on the most challenging investment issues of today and explore the application of Institute research in the asset owner context. They will provide asset owners members with an opportunity to engage with and learn from each other and share experiences and innovations through a TAI-curated conversation.
Each session is designed to cover a specific topic, outlined below, and participants will receive pre-reading and potentially polling questions to ensure familiarity with the topic and a well-framed discussion on the day. Short case studies may also feature, where available.

Your time is valuable so we have designed a ‘round-the-table’ format to promote equality of voice which involves concise presentations interspersed with participants speaking for short and equal periods of time.

How long are they?
Each session will be 1 hour 15 minutes, to allow time for introductions and an overview of the topic to be discussed before diving in. We will run the same session twice in each instance to cater for different time zones.

Upcoming sessions
IFT Macro | 28 November 06:00 – 07:30 GMT (17:00 – 18:30 AEDT) and also 15:00 – 16:30 GMT (10:00 – 11:30 ET)

How to get involved?
If any of these topics are of interest to you or a colleague, please let us know and we will sign you up. There will be more details in advance of each session which will be shared in Memo, our regular newsletter.
