“Two PE CEOs share their success stories”

The INSEAD Private Equity Club invites you to hear the inside scoop from two seasoned Dutch private equity CEOs. In the usual informal setting, you have the opportunity to learn more about these success stories directly from the ‘horse’s mouth’ and gain key insights about how they struck multiple PE deals each, how they created value and what drove the returns.

In addition, the event is an ideal setting to meet and network with other INSEAD professionals active in private equity or with an interest in the sector.
Please note: the event will be in Dutch
