The discussion will focus on how confidence recovered in the second half of 2025 after the industry was impacted by geopolitical and trade‑related uncertainty. Drawing on recent data and practitioner insights, the panel will address fundraising trends, investment and exit activity and the factors shaping Europe’s position in a shifting global environment.

André Aubert will moderate the roundtable “Continuation funds & Secondaries: market dynamics, investor expectations, and how to assess quality in a fast‑evolving segment”. This session will explore the development of continuation funds and secondaries and identify high‑quality opportunities in this rapidly evolving area.
