Where the leaders of the European hedge fund sector connect, share insights and debate the direction of the industry.

The industry's must-attend event
The flagship HFM European Operational Leaders Summit is an exclusive annual meeting point for senior operational executives from the largest and most innovative funds in Europe, offering a unique platform to debate, discuss and challenge in an off-the-record setting.
Since 2010, the Summit has provided the opportunity for European hedge fund leaders to learn, share and network with their peer group and gain an understanding of how others are reacting to the latest challenges and opportunities facing the industry.
The perfect location
The HFM European Operational Leaders Summit 2022 will be held at five-star retreat, The Grove.
Situated just 18 miles from London and set in 300 acres of stunning Hertfordshire countryside, The Grove will provide the ideal location to connect with peers from across the industry, exchange ideas and experiences over cocktails and dinner, and partake in a number of our networking activities.
Delegates will benefit from a complimentary one night stay at The Grove (subject to availability).


The VIP Club Experience
We want our HFM European Operational Club Members' Summit experience to be just that little bit extra enjoyable, insightful and rewarding.
We've planned a host of Club Member benefits across the two days, including an exclusive-access Breakfast Workshop on Day One, a golfing afternoon on Day Two, and a private Members' Lounge where you'll be able to relax and unwind any time throughout the event.
