Frequently Asked Questions
What is SALT iConnections Asia?
SALT iConnections Asia is a conference that will convene over 1,000 of the world’s leading alternative investment managers, entrepreneurs and policymakers, including over 150 allocators (family offices, funds of funds, asset managers, endowments, foundations, pensions and sovereign wealth funds) from over 20 countries.
It is the first event ever jointly created by SALT, the global thought leadership event and content company, and iConnections, the premier GP/LP networking and capital introduction platform.
SALT Asia was last hosted in 2013. The return of the event this year is a reflection of SALT’s recommitment to the APAC region and recognition of the disruptive innovation and game-changing business opportunities there.
