    Where APAC hedge fund leaders connect, learn and shape the future 


     Formerly known as the HFM APAC Operational Leaders Summit, the With Intelligence Hedge Fund COO Summit | APAC is an exclusive retreat for senior operational leaders from the region’s largest and most innovative hedge funds. 

    Held in a private setting, the Summit blends off-the-record conversations, expert-led panels, and small-group roundtables, all curated to tackle the most pressing operational, regulatory, and technological priorities facing APAC hedge funds today. 

    Featuring expertly researched content, engaging debates, and exceptional networking opportunities, it is an unmissable annual fixture to benchmark, discuss and challenge with peers.   

    About the Summit

    Building on a record breaking year 

    In February 2025, the Hedge Fund COO Summit | APAC celebrated its 15th anniversary with its largest edition to date. Over 290 senior executives gathered for two days of peer-led discussion, high-level networking, and standout experiences that set a new standard for hedge fund events in the region. 

    With 45 expert speakers, the agenda explored the most pressing priorities for APAC hedge fund COOs, from China’s evolving opportunities and 15 years of regional insight to real-world applications of AI. 

    Building on that momentum, the Summit returns in January 2026 with a renewed focus on the conversations that matter, offering senior leaders a trusted space to connect, exchange ideas, and navigate the future of hedge fund operations in APAC.

    Connecting hedge fund leaders  

    Strictly by invitation, the Hedge Fund COO Summit | APAC is the region’s leading retreat for senior operational executives from Asia-Pacific’s most prominent and innovative hedge funds. From billion-dollar COOs to rising stars from innovative new launches, this is where real-world challenges are unpacked in a confidential, high-calibre environment. 

    Across two days of closed-door roundtables, intimate discussions and standout networking, attendees share real-world challenges, debate emerging risks, and explore new approaches with their peers. It’s a space to step back, exchange ideas, and shape the future of hedge fund operations in the region.
