The Dentons Private Equity group will be sponsoring and attending this year’s IPEM conference, the premier conference for private equity professionals and investors in Europe, on January 28-30 in Cannes, France. Our lawyers from Europe, the UK and Ireland will be pleased to connect with you. 

Under the theme “New Promises for Private Markets”, the 2025 edition of the conference is set to take place at a pivotal moment for private capital. While macroeconomic challenges have been extensively discussed and can now be considered the “new normal,” fantastic opportunities are also just around the corner for our industry. This year’s theme, New Promises for Private Markets, reflects this exciting shift. Private markets are not only poised to outperform but also to continue innovating in deals, creating value, and expanding their investment universe beyond traditional private equity. They are also democratizing rapidly and irresistibly.

Dentons partners Joseph Collingwood, Olivia Guéguen and James Davison will be speaking during the Private Equity Summit taking place on January 29 as part of the conference. Olivia will be a speaker on "How to climb through the exit window" panel, while James will be moderating the "Sharing value with management and employees" panel.
