About The Conference

The PIPEs Conference stands as the definitive gathering for leaders in private investments in public equity – a high-impact forum where capital meets opportunity. Each year, the event convenes an audience of institutional investors, public issuers, investment banks, and advisors at the forefront of PIPE transactions. More than just a conference, it’s where the market’s biggest ideas are debated, deals are sparked, and relationships are forged.

Produced by DealFlow Events – the pioneers behind the original PIPEs Conference over two decades ago – this flagship event has earned its reputation as the industry’s must-attend summit for professionals shaping and executing PIPE deals.

This year’s agenda delivers cutting-edge insights across accounting and legal frameworks, transaction structuring, investor sentiment, and capital-raising strategies for public companies. And beyond the stage, the real magic happens in the connections: curated meetings, lively receptions, and countless informal moments that bring together investors, issuers, and intermediaries in one ecosystem.

What’s New This Year

For this year’s conference, we’re debuting 1-on-1 pre-event scheduling and offering two hands-on workshops covering the accounting and legal essentials of PIPE transactions. These workshops are designed to give our issuer attendees practical insight into deal structures, regulatory requirements, and compliance essentials.
