Sponsorship Opportunities Are Now Available


A Forum for Senior, Pre-Qualified Buy Side Heads of Trading and Hand-Picked Providers

At TradeTech Connect, you’re in control. Your schedule is customised so you can get your strategic benchmarking and vendor evaluation needs covered within days, not weeks.

As attendance is restricted to Heads of Trading and above from the top institutional asset managers, hedge funds and a select group of best-of-breed vendors, you will:

  • Brainstorm real and practical ideas to transform your trading desk through private, closed-door sessions led by market leaders
  • Efficiently evaluate the leading market offerings during conveniently arranged 1-1 meetings with vendors that you select based on your current investment priorities.

It’s a Platinum Members’ Club offering a bespoke experience for those shaping the future of equity trading. It’s where you make the connections you need to make, when you want to make them.

“The closed-door format of the event meant we could have open and honest conversations with our peers that we can't get at other conferences”
