Sydecar SPV Summit
Sydecar SPV Summit (Invitation-only)
See full agenda and speakers here.
Private markets are in transition. Allocators are diligencing managers more heavily before committing capital, distributions have slowed as companies stay private longer, and managers are closing well short of target — or extending timelines by years. Meanwhile, allocators increasingly want exposure to specific deals, not a blind pool for a decade.
The SPV has emerged as the mechanism that meets both sides: it lets managers back individual companies with conviction, gives allocators direct access and control, and opens private markets to a wider set of investors.
Sydecar's inaugural SPV Summit convenes the people who will shape the SPV landscape for years to come: GPs, deal sponsors, allocators, wealth advisors, journalists, and policy voices. Through shared conversation, we will explore the next decade of private capital deployment through SPVs and the implications for the broader private markets ecosystem.
💬 What we'll be chatting about
Why venture secondaries have overtaken public listings and how SPVs became the vehicle driving those deals
How GPs and RIAs are widening access as private markets go mainstream
Navigating a regulatory environment in constant flux as an SPV manager
Between mainstage sessions, we'll have roundtable discussions to give attendees space to work through their own questions with peers and speakers.
