Last Friday 120 top-tier private investors from Europe, the US, China, and Russia met in Zurich at the SWX Swiss Exchange for the first global private investors’ conference, privateDC. Besides discussing investment opportunities and inspiring panel discussion, probably the most notable contribution was the connections being established among the participants.

The numerous discussions initiated at privateDC will continue with the help of Private Deal Network (privateDN) – the invitation only network for global private investors focussing on their investment activities in high-growth companies.

After this exciting day, 40 participants explored the famous Jungfrau region in the heart of Switzerland. Despite challenging weather conditions everyone enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere to deepen personal connections.

In the end, everybody agreed that this will not have been the last Private Deal Conference and is looking forward to meeting the next time for privateDC 2007.
