IPA Releases Agenda for IPAVision 2026

The Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (IPA) has released the agenda for IPAVision 2026, taking place September 14–17, 2026 in Atlanta.

‍

The agenda brings together leaders from across the alternative investments ecosystem for three days of discussions focused on private markets, wealth management, distribution, technology, operations, and the forces shaping the future of the industry.

‍

New for 2026, the conference will begin with the First Movers Forum, an interactive pre-conference program designed to provide practical insights into the alternatives lifecycle. Through a series of working sessions, participants will explore transaction structuring, tax optimization strategies, and operational considerations for scaling alternative investment offerings.

‍

The broader conference agenda features a range of keynote presentations, panel discussions, and peer-driven conversations. Sessions include The Mega Allocator Playbook: How the Largest Endowments and Institutional Investors Are Shifting Capital for the Decade Ahead, The Geopolitist: How Global Power Shifts Are Reshaping Where Capital Flows, The Futurist: The Trends, Technologies, and Demographic Forces Defining the Next Era of Investing, and Alts Talk: Real-Time Insights from Wealth Channel Leaders.

‍

Attendees will also gain access to findings from the latest AltsLeaders Survey, explore practice management strategies in Sharpening the Edge: Future-Proofing Wealth Management Practices, and hear market perspectives from industry leaders during a series of strategic outlook sessions.

‍

With nearly 600 attendees expected, IPAVision 2026 will bring together professionals from asset management, wealth management, distribution, technology, legal, operations, and investment management to examine the trends, opportunities, and challenges shaping the next chapter of alternative investments.
