it|venture’s Private Markets Summer Party

On Thursday 10th July, we welcomed over 100 guests to our Private Markets Summer Party at the stunning Searcys at The Gherkin in London. It was an evening all about bringing together friends, clients, and partners from across the private markets world to celebrate a year packed with growth, collaboration, and shared wins.

After a busy year of exciting projects, new partnerships, and big achievements, it was great to take a step back and spend time with the people who make what we do possible.

We wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to the firms and individuals who’ve worked with us over the past year, whether through major tech transformations, system selections, or ongoing strategic projects. Our success is built on these partnerships, and this was our way of showing our appreciation.

The night was a perfect excuse to take a break from the day-to-day and enjoy great company. A roaming magician wowed the crowd with mind-bending tricks and sleight-of-hand that had people laughing, gasping, and calling others over to “see this one!” Meanwhile, a caricaturist worked the room, capturing quick, playful sketches that guests could take home as a memento of the night.

The private markets industry is moving fast, with bigger demands for better data, smarter tech, and more agile ways of working. Nights like this remind us how important it is to come together, share ideas, and keep moving forward as a community.

We’re excited to keep working alongside our clients and partners to tackle challenges, deliver meaningful results, and help shape the future of the industry.

To everyone who joined us, thank you for making the night so memorable. And if you couldn’t make it, we’ll have plenty more chances to catch up soon.

Here’s to more great conversations, shared successes, and memorable moments in the months ahead.
