HedgeStock’s Here!
Think hedge fund manager and the first image that comes to mind is of a person whose eyes are glued to the screen 14 hours at a time. There is probably not enough time for lunch breaks, and they have to be on call 24 hours, buying, selling and setting new trends. But get ready to rethink this image in June. Just a few days from now (June 7 & 8), you will see how these workaholics chill and play as hard as they work – at HedgeStock.
Polo, cricket, parachute jumping, laser shooting and watching The Who, one of the world's most famous music bands, while sipping Pimms – this is a different face of your harried hedge fund manager that you will get to see. HedgeStock is a charity event – at Knebworth a country estate North of London -- organized by hedge fund advisory company Albourne Partners. The event is expected to get people together from banks, other institutions, big corporates and hedge funds. Reuters.com reports:
HedgeStock is expected to attract more than 4,000 hedge fund managers, investors and bankers from around the world, making it one of the world's biggest hedge fund events.
