About Private Markets Group Ltd

---

Private Markets Group (PMG) is an educational UK networking events and digital media company uniting family offices, institutional investors, UHNWIs, and alternative investment professionals worldwide. Headquartered in London, we curate high-caliber events, produce authoritative digital content, and facilitate exclusive networking across the UK, EU, GCC, Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Caribbean.

The PMG platform embodies excellence, selectivity, and institutional quality—trusted by the world's most discerning private markets participants. Through rigorous academic partnerships with Oxford University's Future of Real Estate Initiative and our commitment to educational integrity, we deliver the intelligence and relationships that drive successful alternative investment strategies.

The Private Markets Group Ltd Distinction

Private Markets Group Ltd's Investor-First Philosophy ensures that single family offices and asset owners—rather than intermediaries—determine the intellectual agenda. Through a proprietary minimum 50% investor attendee threshold, we guarantee that each forum maintains peer-level discourse, investment-centric content and independence from commercial pressure.

Participant Profile

Private Markets Group Ltd convenes a global network spanning the United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Africa, North America, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

Our participants comprise single and multi-family offices, endowments, foundations, pension funds, institutional investors, academic researchers, private market funds, and legal and regulatory specialists, representing assets under management ranging from £100 million to in excess of £10 billion.

Our Commitment

Private Markets Group Ltd is committed to elevating standards in family office engagement by delivering forums where investors control the agenda, education supersedes promotion, and relationships are founded upon trust rather than transactional imperatives.

We create exclusive platforms for authentic dialogue on long-term family office investment strategy, including:

• Sustainable real estate investment and built environment innovation
• Private equity, private credit & infrastructure
• Secondaries and liquidity design
• Capital formation and philanthropy

How we connect leaders:

• Private educational summits in strategic partnership with the Oxford Future of Real Estate Initiative
• Global digital media & educational webinars
• Real estate innovation & technology magazine

The PMG difference: Rigorous dialogue. Trusted peers. No sales pitches.

Why We Built PMG Differently

Single Family Offices have expressed to us a clear dissatisfaction with some industry networking events marked by vendor-driven agendas and low single family office peer concentration. 

Private Markets Group Ltd was established to provide authentic, peer-led family office forums where single family offices & asset owners—not service providers—drive the conversation.

The Problem We Solve

Unfortunately, too many family office events suffer from:

• High ratio of service providers to actual investors
• Sales-driven agendas disguised as education
• Limited access to genuine peer dialogue
• Transactional networking lacking strategic depth
• Sales & product pitches dominating content

Our Solution

PMG events maintain a strict 50%+ investor attendee ratio, ensuring that conversations are peer-level, investment-focused, and free from commercial pressures.
