What is the Wharton Hedge Fund Network?
The Wharton Hedge Fund Network (WHFN) was founded in 2005 as an Affinity Group of the Wharton Club of New York (WCNY). The group aims to bring together Wharton alumni active in the greater hedge fund community, which includes professionals working at hedge funds, hedge fund allocators, and dedicated service providers.

Events are by invitation only and limited to Wharton undergraduates and/or Wharton MBA's who are employed in the hedge fund space. For more information on WHFN and past events, please visit the Wharton Hedge Fund Network page.

What is the Next Event?
Our third event of the year will be a panel featuring a discussion of best practices in the investment research process. Hedge fund manager thought leaders will discuss topics of interest to all investment professionals in a research-related capacity. The discussion will be style- and instrument-agnostic.

Panelists will include Seth Rosen, founder of Nitorum Capital Management, and Kian Ghazi, founder of Hawkshaw Capital Management. The panel will be moderated by Rob Rouse, head of Americas Equity Research at Barclays.

The event will be held Wednesday, September 27th at a Midtown location. (The exact location will be communicated shortly after signing up.) We will not be able to permit walk-ins, replacements or guests.
