14th Hamburger Fondsgespräch

Hamburger Fondsgespräche were founded on the initiative of lawyers from the law firms POELLATH and YPOG. From the outset, the aim of this initiative was to create an open forum in Hamburg for the private equity and venture capital scene as well as the closed-end fund industry, which would be available to all individuals and companies who deal with closed-end fund products in their work to exchange ideas and experiences.

Since 2023, the organization has been in the hands of P+ Training.

Dr. Helder Schnittker (YPOG), Amos Veith (POELLATH), Uwe Bärenz (POELLATH), Gilles Dusemon (Arendt) and Dr. Dajo Sanning (YPOG) are responsible for the content of the event program. Suggestions and criticism are always welcome.

The 14th Hamburger Fondsgespräch will take place on October 08, 2024 at the Hotel Hafen Hamburg. Register now for the event!
