Breakout Sessions
Canterbury Consulting's 2020 Annual Investment Forum will offer two concurrent breakout sessions for the audience to participate in. The first, "Implementing a Co-Investment Program for Taxable Investors," seeks to educate forum attendees on how private capital co-investment programs can afford investors more control over their private capital portfolios and provide the potential for return enhancement. Canterbury will moderate the session featuring Michael Dal Bello, investment partner at Pritzker Private Capital and Eric Zoller, founder and partner of Sixpoint Partners. The discussion will cover the history of co-investing, as well as the advantages and challenges of implementing a co-investment program from both the LP and GP's perspective.
During the second breakout session, "Navigating Challenges Faced by Nonprofit Staff and Trustees" participants will be able to discuss and learn more about their challenges and opportunities among peers. Canterbury will lead the interactive session and examine opportunities institutions have to better balance investment considerations, organizational objectives, and governance models while maintaining alignment with their overall mission.
The invitation-only Annual Investment Forum takes place January 22, 2020, at the Balboa Bay Resort, 1221 West Coast Highway in Newport Beach, CA. Information and videos on the event can be found at canterburyconsulting.com.
