Private Capital Summit

FT Live and Latham & Watkins have created a new and exclusive conference focused on the market for private capital. 

Following a successful 2025 edition, the event will return in 2026, once again bringing together the biggest names in private equity, private credit, infrastructure and real estate to discuss current market conditions and the most attractive investment opportunities. 

Chaired by the FT’s Finance and Markets Editor, Arash Massoudi, the event will explore the latest developments in all these asset classes, in a day of keynote interviews, panel discussion, dialogues and networking sessions. 

* Eligibility criteria: This summit is strictly reserved for senior professionals from leading private capital firms. Attendees will include senior decision-makers primarily from the PEI 300 and PDI 200. Each application will be reviewed by the event organisers to ensure the seniority and relevance of attendees.
