The IVCA is a member based organization that represents Indian venture capital and private equity firms, promotes the industry within India and throughout the world and supports entrepreneurial activity and innovation.The IVCA also serves as a strong platform for investment funds to interact with each other.
Given the maturing of the Indian VC & PE fund managers, a conclave on how to institutionalize the firm seems very timely. For perspective, a large number of fund managers are now onto third generation of funds or more, and have built large teams. Consequently, decision making systems need to be streamlined, compensation systems need to be built for sustainability, information needs to be better managed, strategies needed to move from a 'Fund" focus to a "Firm" focus, etc.
This takes us to other key issues - not losing the entrepreneurial edge while building processes within the growing organization; balancing rapid personal growth goals that were set by the recent industry growth versus the expected slowdown now; organization related processes and decision making in the context of the growth of the firm, etc. This is the first time that such an advanced level workshop is being conducted in India.
The Registration Fee is Rs.50,000 per participant.
