Dan Sondhelm is joining a panel at the Uncorrelated Manager Growth Summit in New York on June 24, alongside fund managers and journalists, to discuss a relationship most emerging managers underrate: the one between a manager and the reporters who cover their market.
An allocator who hears your name looks you up before they reply. When a reporter has written about you, that search builds confidence. When nothing comes back, the meeting often never gets scheduled. The panel will get into how managers build these relationships and put them to work in a raise.
The summit is built for growth-stage and emerging managers across hedge funds, private equity, private credit, venture, real estate, crypto, and other private strategies. The day centers on capital formation, with LP investors, GPs, and capital-raising specialists leading sessions on positioning your fund, reaching LPs, getting through due diligence, and closing allocations. Attendance is complimentary for qualified managers and invited investors.
