The Connecticut Hedge Fund Association together with the Governor and the State of Connecticut will be hosting the inaugural World Hedge Fund Forum on March 5-6, 2007. Greenwich, as the epicenter of the global hedge fund industry has been selected as the host city for this annual event. 

The World Hedge Fund Forum will be a unique event on the hedge fund conference circuit, and is designed to bring the "spirit of Davos" to Connecticut's shores.  The forum will bring together top fund managers, influential investors, leading academics and powerful regulators, in a setting that we hope will foster constructive dialogue, and help to shape the future of this dynamic industry.
