At the LPGP Connect CFO/COO Private Markets event in London, we had some great conversations with leaders from across the industry, all facing the same challenge: how to build operational resilience while keeping things fast, accurate, and transparent.
It’s no secret that many firms still rely on spreadsheets to manage complex waterfall and carry models. But with rising investor expectations and increasing regulatory pressure, that old way of working just doesn’t cut it anymore. Now’s the time to move forward and automation is the way to do it.

In our live session, qashqade CEO & Founder Oliver Freigang shared how technology can take the weight off fund operations teams. Rather than dwelling on what’s broken, we focused on what’s possible when firms adopt smarter tools and let go of Excel.

Panel Highlights: Rethinking the Balance Between In-House and Outsourced Operations
David Wilson, Sales Director EMEA at qashqade, joined an expert panel tackling the operational question: Is bringing it in-house the new trend?
The panel explored how firms are navigating the outsourcing landscape to drive efficiency, reduce risk, and meet rising regulatory expectations. David shared practical perspectives on how outsourcing can support scalable growth. He also addressed the strategic value of outsourcing certain functions to the right partner. The key message? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, but smart tech and clear priorities can help firms strike the right balance.
We’re here to enable a more resilient, tech-enabled future for fund operations and we’re just getting started.
