Event description
The Great Divergence
The leading global gathering for emerging fund managers and the allocators who back them.
Step into the evening with Allocator One in London, where the summit shifts gears into a night of connection and celebration. The Allocator One Alpha Summit Reception & Alpha Awards brings together the most inspiring global leaders, top-tier LPs, unicorn founders, and next-gen family offices for an unforgettable after-party.
The evening begins at 6:30 PM with cocktails and conversation, before moving to the main floor for a dinner experience blending buffet and flying service. At 7:30 PM, the spotlight turns to the Alpha Awards, recognizing the boldest voices and brightest builders shaping the future of venture capital.
After the awards, the night opens up with a live DJ, flowing drinks, and food until 11:00 PM—the perfect backdrop to keep the conversations going well beyond the summit.
This is more than a party. It’s where capital and community meet, and where tomorrow’s stories start.
