​About

​SuperReturn International brings the best conversations between sessions, when there is finally enough space to pause and reflect. This Roundtable is built around that moment.

​Join us to explore how investment firms and M&A houses are deploying AI to gain an edge in financing the energy transition – where human judgment still matters, and where AI is beginning to do the heavy lifting.

​Aligning with SuperReturn’s two-day Energy Transition Summit and the AI & Tech Innovation Summit, this event sits at the intersection of three converging forces reshaping energy infrastructure: the physical grid, private capital, and AI operating across both layers.

​This is deliberately not a panel, not a pitch session, and not a product showcase. The goal is a high-quality, candid conversation among practitioners – the people actually deploying capital into and operating within energy infrastructure today.

​Two short co-host briefings open each roundtable, followed by open discussion. The evening closes with drinks and open networking.

​People Attending:

• ​Apricum Managing Partner, Penomo CEO, BCG X Director, Future Energy Lab Managers

• ​Partners & Senior Managers from BakerMcKenzie, ICG, CVC, JPMorgan and more.
