SYMPOSIUM BOOKLET BOCCONI STUDENTS ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS SYMPOSIUM
18 - 19 November 2013 OUR MISSION
The Bocconi Students’ Alternative Investments Symposium (BSAIS) is a two-day, student organised Symposium with the aim
to bridge the world of Private Equity & Hedge Funds with Academia. BSAIS will be held on November 18th and 19th, 2013 in

international leaders in the alternative investment industry and the brightest students interested in it. The aim of BSAIS is
educational – cutting edge speakers will present and debate their view in panel discussions and keynotes – in such students

workshops, form valuable relationships with other students and network with professionals to enhance their career prospects
in the Private Equity & Hedge Fund industry. BSAIS serves as a platform for internationalism – we encourage dedicated
undergraduate, master, MBA and PhD students from all over the world to register for a place at BSAIS.
The Bocconi Students’ Alternative Investment Society is committed to attract students who are passionate about the
management of alternative investments and are keen on developing a deep understanding of these fast-paced industries.
Our main focus is to educate our members and create a platform that enables our members to network with like-minded
