Last week, our first-ever Innovation Day Conference attracted more than 250 attendees to Bishopsgate in London, where we explored the future of finance, investing in the space sector, what next for AI, quantum computing, and cybersecurity, guided by some of the world’s leaders in these fields.

Attendees at AIMA Innovation Day learnt:

1️⃣ Quantum computing could supercharge financial markets like never before! Imagine faster trade optimisations, sharper risk profiling, and next-level fraud detection. The future of finance may be quantum-powered!

2️⃣ Look up!  The space sector may be the next investment frontier. VC and PE firms are partnering with governments to explore new galaxies of opportunity. From satellites to asteroid mining, the race is on—and it's not just for astronauts! 

3️⃣ AI and digital transformation might revolutionise alternative investments. Whether speeding up due diligence or unlocking new ways to optimise portfolios, investors are trying to leverage AI to stay ahead of the curve. 

4️⃣ Cybersecurity regulations are tightening, and the ripple effects are huge! For alternative investment managers, these new rules mean more than compliance—they reshape how technology providers must operate to keep systems secure. The stakes? Trust, resilience, and the future of your investments.
