IMD and Swiss Ventures Group launch an academic European Venture Asset Management program. The goal is to accelerate the understanding, awareness, and expertise in venture asset management across Switzerland and Europe.
Starting in the third quarter of 2023, the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) and Swiss Ventures Group (SVG) will offer a dedicated annual executive education programme for experienced investment professionals to improve understanding of the venture capital market, supported by the creation of a dedicated center for venture asset management competence.
The program, hosted at IMD’s Lausanne campus, will involve a two-day in-person course for institutional investors. It will focus on creating valuable academic research, educating finance professionals, and developing a community and platform for peer exchange in Europe. Partnering with SVG, IMD has founded the “Venture Asset Management Competence Center” as a hub to support the new initiative.
As many European investors – whether from professional, family office or private origin – are unfamiliar with venture capital market mechanisms, dedicated experts from the field will provide insights into the latest research. Participants of the two-day course can expect to gain high quality, fundamental research and actionable insights that have a direct impact on their interactions with the Swiss and European start-up environment.
