The International Funds Conference produced an enviable list of internationally respected speakers for the 2009 event, and we have been extremely honoured by the number of world class speakers that have made themselves available for our 2010 conference. Our goal is to make this into an annual event that every major player in our industry will have marked on their calender as ‘must attend’ and we have taken a big step forward in pursuit of that goal with the speakers and panelists we have assembled this year.
