Project initiators meeting investors

Private equity is a financial activity consists for an investor in entering the capital of companies that need capital transactions.
For fifteen years, the sector of company financing by institutional investment funds has been taking a large importance at international level. Actors of sovereign wealth funds, institutional investment funds and private equity investment funds are looking to meet companies in need of being funded to ensure their development or internationalization. To date, this value chain did not benefit from a large international event. Europevents, a communication and event group, wished, through its subsidiary Europexpo, to create an event enabling meetings and exchanges between project initiators and investment funds.

Cannes, the perfect match for a key event

René Pérès said: “Private equity deserves a large international event in which all elements of the value chain of the involved industry can participate. Cannes allows this gathering and has unique strengths to this format of event: reception facilities, staff professionalism, hotel capacity and all necessary subcontractors”.
David Lisnard welcomed the creation of this professional event whose positioning is “in perfect harmony with the public image of Cannes and the Palais des Festivals.” The Mayor of Cannes is delighted with this signature: “Given the size of the event, its positioning and date, this is great news for Cannes economy and the sector of business tourism. I thank the organizers for their trust and hope that IPEM will meet their goals.”
