Douro Valley

Join us for the VNTR Club Retreat in Portugal—a three-day journey through Óbidos and the Douro Valley with Club members, Summit speakers, and VIP guests. Together we’ll enjoy wine tastings, riverside cruises, and shared dinners while exploring Portugal’s most scenic landscapes.

We understand that the current situation in the region may raise questions for some attendees. The safety and wellbeing of our speakers, partners, and attendees remains our highest priority.

We are closely monitoring developments and remain in ongoing dialogue with relevant local partners. At this time, the VNTR Dubai Investor Forum is planned to proceed as scheduled, and preparations continue as normal.

We encourage participants to review official travel guidance from their respective governments and make decisions based on their own circumstances. Should anything change, we will communicate updates promptly.

Gillian Muessig

Managing Director at Masters Fund

VNTR is, hands down, the most effective and productive investor network for fund managers. Only VNTR has provided such bespoke, hands-on, deeply engaged support during our capital raise.

VNTR’s dedication to efficiency and productivity is truly remarkable, as they consistently deliver a multitude of investor events around the world. I appreciate experimentation with different formats of networking, matching, socialising etc.

Alex Kazmarck

Thank you VNTR for the wonderful event and gathering such knowledge in one room. This is the reason I joined VNTR after my first Roundtable in Singapore last year.
