SuperReturn, the world's leading private equity and venture capital conference series, will host three of its flagship events in New York City from November 16 to 18, 2026, at Convene 360 Madison Avenue. The co-location of SuperReturn Private Credit North America, SuperReturn Strategic Technology, and SuperReturn Secondaries North America signals a strategic move to address the increasing interconnectedness of private markets, where investors are increasingly seeking cross-asset perspectives and opportunities.
The decision to host these three conferences simultaneously is significant because it acknowledges that private credit, secondaries, and technology investing are no longer isolated silos. Limited partners (LPs) and general partners (GPs) are navigating a landscape where these strategies often overlap, particularly as private credit secondaries gain traction and technology-focused funds explore continuation vehicles. By bringing together more than 450 senior decision makers for the private credit event alone, plus over 250 for secondaries, SuperReturn is facilitating a level of networking and knowledge exchange that could accelerate deal-making and innovation across these markets.
SuperReturn Private Credit North America, now in its 11th year, will anchor the program as the largest of the three. The agenda includes direct lending, asset-backed finance, private credit secondaries, evergreen structures, and the private wealth channel. A new Asset-Backed Finance Summit on November 16 will delve into trends shaping asset-backed deployment and capital allocation. This expansion reflects the growing importance of asset-backed strategies in a higher-for-longer interest rate environment, where investors are seeking yield and diversification.
SuperReturn Strategic Technology, a one-day event on November 16, will focus on structural shifts in technology investing, including AI, data centers, deep tech, quantum, and defense technology. The presence of speakers such as Ankur Dubey of Schroders and Ludwig Pierre Schulze of Alumni Ventures underscores the event's relevance for LPs and GPs looking to navigate the rapidly evolving tech landscape. As technology continues to disrupt traditional industries, the insights shared here could inform allocation strategies and identify emerging winners.
SuperReturn Secondaries North America, spanning November 17-18, will gather more than 250 secondaries decision makers to examine GP-led secondaries, LP-led trends, continuation vehicles, and portfolio rebalancing. The participation of firms like Coller Capital and HarbourVest Partners highlights the event's role in shaping the secondary market's maturation, which is critical for providing liquidity and price discovery in private markets.
Dr. Dorothy Kelso, Global Head of SuperReturn, noted that the co-location creates a forum where investors can examine distinct but increasingly connected areas of private markets. This interconnectedness is important because it mirrors the real-world blurring of lines between credit, equity, and technology strategies. For instance, private credit secondaries are a growing niche that bridges credit and secondaries expertise, while technology-focused continuation vehicles are becoming more common. By fostering dialogue across these domains, SuperReturn is helping industry participants identify where the next generation of private capital opportunities may emerge.
The conferences are supported by a roster of sponsors and partners, including Barings, Invesco, and Latham & Watkins, indicating broad industry backing. For journalists, a single press pass is available to cover all three events, further emphasizing the integrated nature of the program.
