Dan Schwartz is the author of "The Future of Finance: How Private Equity and Venture Capital Will Shape the Global Economy". At this breakfast, Dan will present a critical look at the global economy, the role of private equity and venture capital within it, and where both are headed in the years ahead.

As part of his remarks, he will give a brief introduction to private equity and venture capital, and how they were impacted by events that triggered the global downturn in 2008. Dan will discuss the industry's top firms and what they do; highlight key issues going forward including proposed government regulation, succession, and globalization; offer insights into future opportunities; and propose a new theory of corporate governance to replace today's corporate norm.
