Value Investing Conference

The mission of the Value Investing Conference is to annually assemble the investing public, professional investors, scholars, and students interested in the field of value investing for the purpose of highlighting and disseminating best practices, honoring best practitioners, and revealing new trends and developments in the field.

Making an Investment in the First Annual Value Investing Conference
The Darden School of Business and the McIntire School of Commerce at the University of Virginia invite you to participate in the inaugural Value Investing Conference. As the host of this year’s conference, The Darden School is seeking financial support for this important event.

A wide range of sponsorship levels afford your company a selection of exclusive opportunities. Sponsors will receive access to U.Va. students and faculty in attendance, as well as networking opportunities with some of the investment world’s greatest minds. There are two sponsorship types, General and Exclusive.
