ALLOCATE ®

Our Mission

The ALLOCATE® event was created by GPs and LPs for fellow GPs and LPs. It is run entirely on a voluntary basis.

If you are an investor looking to back emerging European VC funds, or a fund manager looking to meet investors that match your fund size, team, and strategy, then ALLOCATE® is the event for you.

As long time operators and investors ourselves, we felt it was time for a new type of event, separate from the wider world of PE: an event focused exclusively on serving those of us who work and invest in high-growth, emerging technology VC funds.

Our mission is to accelerate the European ecosystem, making it easier for LPs to find the right funds to invest in and for GPs to find the right investors.

Our vision is to accelerate the European tech VC ecosystem to be the msot active and best performing in the world.

ALLOCATE® 2019 was a huge success, with over 230 attendees: VC LPs, VC GPs, and ecosystem supporters. We look forward to welcoming you again in 2020.

Allocate Tickets

ALLOCATE® was created primarily to support the European tech venture ecosystem, not for profit.

We charges only what we need to cover ongoing costs and minimise the handout of free tickets. We also believe that GPs and LPs should pay the same and get the same level of quality from the events.

Because of this, we have been able to keep costs reasonable and open up to a diverse audience that large PE conferences can't reach:

At ALLOCATE® ticket prices are fair and affordable for all.
