French Riviera π«π·
Reporting to you live from the Cote d'Azure, I'm here for the 10th edition of IPEM (International Private Equity Market) in Cannes which officially kicks off tomorrow. It has been known to be "mostly French" until recent years as it attracts more of the international crowd. I've been told it's huge like SuperReturn Berlin but with a trade show feel. It's my first time attending so I'm quite looking forward to it!
Thank you to the IPEM team for having TIDE as a guest! π₯

What comes after Cannes?
Miami. AIMA. iConnections. MFA. Breakers. The entire week of January 29th will be events galore.
On that note, if you're an LP, I'll be co-hosting a dinner at Nobu on Wednesday, January 31st with Azora Capital. Please feel free to email paul@azoracapital.com.
Ps. Come watch John, Sasha, Angela, and me on stage as we discuss with Owen how companies can attract talent in a competitive world. Show me the money! π°
Thank you to Diana Arakelyan for inviting us to be part of this discussion!

Back by Popular Demand
For those who have made the trek out to Albany in the past for the NYSTRS & Common conferences, you know that after dinner everyone just hangs out at the hotel bar.
BUT, last year we decided to do something different. Marcos had a great idea to switch it up. The cool kids decided to do some axe throwing. πͺ

TIDE International Updateπ‘ππΌββοΈ
TIDE is officially in the throes of international expansion. Our US operations will continue as normal while TIDE International represents our efforts to amplify the underrepresented voices on a global scale. We plan to partner with many organizations to promote diversity. Here in Europe, the focus is predominantly on gender.
We are so excited to share this journey with all of our supporters so much so that we're already planning our TIDE International event...

TIDE London Pop-up Event
Which means, time to block out your calendar! We'll be hosting a TIDE pop-up event in London on April 4th. The event will be held in the 1 Hotel Mayfair. With only 100 spots available, we already have about 20 of UK LPs signed up! ππ»
As per usual, we have scoured the globe to bring together an impressive speaker roster for our sponsors. We have confirmed industry's bests Marcie Frost, CEO of CalPERS and Eduard van Gelderen, CIO of PSP Investments.
Keep your eyes peeled for more speaker announcements...

Registration is subject to approval. One pass per sponsorship.

Due to capacity constraints, this particular event is reserved for sponsors and LPs but we hope to bring future events to the TIDE network.

Nominate a Rising Star π«
While it's important to know the decision makers of today, we must not ignore the future leaders of tomorrow.
Often times we network with only those who can help us now instead of who we can help pull up the ladder in the future.
But of course, TIDE is here to flip the script.
Last year we featured a Rising Star Panel. It was a breakout session that was very well regarded that many have requested to be featured on the main stage this year.
So now, here's your chance to select who we should feature for TIDE SPARK 2024! ππ»
Nominations for the TIDE Rising Stars of 2024 are now open. Please see link in comment below.

London Ladies
In celebration of our move across the pond, we hosted a " Weekend Social" in the TIDE London HQ aka my place. A group of us ladies in the industry got together to connect and mingle. The theme was Spice girls, with an unusually high proportion of Posh Spices at the get together!
Special birthday shout-out to our favourite Baby Spice Tingting Peng.

Ending 2023 Strong...
TIDE had the honor of representing at SuperInvestor Zurich and SuperReturn North America at the end of 2023. Special thanks to Stephen Ashiotis and the SuperReturn team for having us!
Zurich: We led an LP-only discussion along with Marie Luchet of AXA titled "DEI within private markets: What role do LPs play?"
Side note: Stephen mentioned that next year's SuperInvestor event location in Monaco was inspired by TIDE! π

Ladies Who Lunch
In between all of the conferences and events, we squeezed in a ladies luncheon with an impressive group of women in the industry at the Aman Club - only the most exclusive club on planet earth. Just one of many benefits from being friends with Quyen. π

Partnerships with Love π«Άπ½

TIDErettes Carolina Siles and Jessica Carlson from Lucid hosted a round table entitled "Fostering Diversity and Leadership: Strategies for Building Inclusive Early-Stage Teams".
We are proud to have so many of our TIDE members supporting this event including the rockstar Priya Kaftan, Chair of the volunteer committee!
