The LSE SU Alternative Investments Conference (AIC) was founded in 2005 by a group of committed and entrepreneurial students who aimed to create a forum for rich dialogue and debate between the world’s leading figures within alternative investments and the brightest students globally.

​

Since then, the AIC has become the world’s largest student conference on alternatives, focusing primarily on Private Equity, Hedge Funds and Venture Capital. Recognised worldwide, the AIC brings together over 60 senior level industry luminaries and 320 delegates from the world’s leading Undergraduate and Postgraduate institutions, while acting as the premier recruitment platform for alternative investment firms globally.

​

As we commemorate our 18th anniversary, we look forward to building on the successes of AIC 2023, bringing together 350 delegates and almost 60 industry leaders over 2 days. This year, we stand ever true to our mission: to educate, connect and inspire the next generation of business leaders.
