The speakers will present and take part in moderated panel discussions covering exciting investment opportunities from space technology to emerging markets, commodities and infrastructure.
The event can be attended either in person or online. Panel discussions and presentations will be held across three conference rooms, so attendees can choose the sessions which they are most interested in. An exhibition area will also be available, offering attendees the chance to meet investment trust managers and other investors.
The Showcase will give investors a valuable opportunity to discover how investment trusts can help them with their long-term investment goals.
