Symposium FAQ's
As part of the IPA’s Commitment to connecting Asset Managers and Distribution Partners, each of our events includes a Due Diligence Symposium (DDS). This unique opportunity allows Asset Managers to introduce their firms to Distribution Partner members in a focused, private setting. These symposia enable small-group meetings, ensuring that Asset Managers connect with all participating Distribution Partners during the conference. Sponsorship provides Asset Managers access to the DDS, but spaces are limited to ensure meaningful engagement and we encourage you to sign up today to become a DDS Sponsor. The DDS is open to Distribution Partners from wire houses, independent broker-dealers, family offices, and registered investment advisors (RIAs).
