Why this event?
A neutral platform – unbiased views, by the buy-side, for the buy-side
Who better to craft the program than Technology & Operational professionals on the buy-side? Because you created the program, TOP Strat can genuinely lay claim to delivering an insider’s perspective and a truly neutral platform. For us, encouraging industry dialogue is the only agenda.
Central location – be home by bedtime
Held in New York, The Technology & Operational Strategy conference is just 2 hours from Boston, and easily accessible by air, rail, and road.
A compact, flexible program
We know that your time is a precious commodity and taking 2 or 3 days out of the office often just isn’t an option. That’s why we’ve packed everything into one concentrated conference day and one workshop day, and have given you the option to book each day separately. Don’t spend any more time away from your desk than needed.
Unrivaled networking opportunities
Because Technology & Operational Strategy is collocated with Data Management; SUPRA; and Client Reporting & Communications; during breaks, lunch, and the drinks reception you will be in the company of more than just your peers in Technology & Operations. You can expect to meet more than 250 buy-side partners, colleagues, and competitors throughout the day. What’s more, if there are sessions at the other events that you want to hear more about, you are welcome to take time out of Technology & Operational Strategy to join them. Just visit the regions page to take a look at any one of them.
