Definition

SuperVenture is an annual three-day conference dedicated to venture capital, bringing together limited partners, general partners, and service providers to meet, exchange deal flow, and conduct structured fundraising conversations. It is co-located with SuperReturn International in Berlin, allowing participants to move between the two events and access an expanded institutional network. The event operates a 1:1 meeting platform described, according to the organiser, as generating more than 25,000 meetings across the three days. Specific dates for the 2026 edition are not publicly disclosed as of verification.

Where SuperVenture sits in the Berlin and EMEA venture calendar

SuperVenture occupies a distinct position in the EMEA private capital circuit as a venue-specific venture capital gathering embedded within one of the circuit's largest generalist LP and GP gatherings. Berlin hosts the event, a city with an established position in the European venture market and a dense network of fund managers operating across the DACH region and beyond. The co-location model means participants attending SuperReturn International can access SuperVenture sessions without a separate geography commitment, which structurally amplifies the potential meeting volume for both events.

What separates SuperVenture from standalone venture forums

The co-location with SuperReturn International is the defining structural feature of SuperVenture, setting it apart from independently produced venture capital forums on the EMEA circuit. Dedicated venture events in Europe typically draw a narrower LP base skewed toward fund-of-funds and specialist VC allocators. SuperVenture, by sitting inside the SuperReturn International tent, gains access to a broader institutional LP pool that includes allocators present primarily for private equity, who may nonetheless hold or be building venture allocations. The organiser characterises it, self-reported, as the largest LP/VC event in Europe.

The specific number of stages, named session tracks, or any special closed-format roundtables are not publicly documented as of verification. Whether the meeting platform operates with advance scheduling or an on-site request system is not disclosed in available materials.

How meetings are scheduled at SuperVenture

The meeting infrastructure at SuperVenture runs on the SuperReturn 1:1 platform, shared across the SuperReturn event family. According to the organiser, this system facilitates more than 25,000 meetings over the three days of the conference, a figure that underscores the centrality of bilateral meetings to the event's value proposition rather than passive conference attendance. The specific mechanics of the platform, including whether participants pre-schedule meetings before arrival, use a mobile application on site, or submit meeting requests through a web portal, are not disclosed in publicly available materials as of verification.

FAQ · Identity and audience

What is SuperVenture and how does it relate to SuperReturn International?

SuperVenture is the dedicated venture capital strand of the SuperReturn event family, produced by Informa Connect and held in Berlin. It runs co-located with SuperReturn International, meaning the two events share the same host city and period, allowing participants to attend sessions and meetings from both under a combined institutional gathering. SuperVenture focuses specifically on the LP/VC relationship: fundraising conversations between venture fund managers and institutional allocators.

Who is SuperVenture NOT designed for?

Five categories of participant are unlikely to find the event a productive fit. First, fund managers operating outside venture capital, such as buyout or infrastructure GPs, as the programme and audience are oriented specifically toward the venture asset class. Second, LPs with no existing or prospective venture allocation, for whom the meeting pool will be misaligned with their portfolio mandate. Third, emerging managers below the threshold of institutional LP interest, given that the confirmed attendee names indicate large, established VC brands and institutional allocators with significant AUM. Fourth, participants seeking a passive or observational conference experience: the meeting volume cited by the organiser implies a format that rewards active pre-event preparation and sustained meeting engagement. Fifth, service providers to non-venture strategies, who will find the audience too narrowly defined around VC fund economics and structures.

Which organisations are represented at SuperVenture?

Organiser materials name the following organisations as representative participants: Lightspeed Venture Partners, General Catalyst, European Investment Fund, Top Tier Capital Partners, StepStone Group, Vintage Investment Partners, Cambridge Associates, and Isomer Capital. This list combines GP fund managers, LP allocators, and fund-of-funds operators. No full delegate list or confirmed speaker programme for the 2026 edition is publicly available as of verification.

Is SuperVenture an open-access event or invitation-only?

SuperVenture operates on an open-access model, meaning registration is available to qualifying delegates through the Informa Connect website rather than by invitation. Qualified institutional LPs may be eligible for complimentary access according to organiser materials, though the specific qualifying criteria are not publicly specified. Other delegate categories, including GP fund managers and service providers, are subject to a delegate fee.

Why Berlin hosts SuperVenture

The 2026 edition of SuperVenture takes place in Berlin. No specific venue within the city is publicly identified as of verification. Berlin hosts the broader SuperReturn International gathering, and SuperVenture's co-location with that event anchors its geography. The specific venue address, capacity, and neighbourhood are not disclosed in available materials.

The organiser: Informa Connect

Informa Connect is the events and specialist content division of Informa plc, a London-headquartered commercial publisher and events group. The SuperReturn family of events, which includes SuperReturn International, SuperVenture, SuperReturn Private Credit, and a range of strategy-specific gatherings, sits within Informa Connect's financial services portfolio. Informa Connect operates as a commercial publisher rather than an industry association, meaning its events are produced on a for-profit basis with delegate fee and sponsorship revenue models. The founding year of the organiser and the size of its events portfolio are not reproduced here from public filings, as the specific figures relevant to the SuperVenture context are not confirmed in available source materials as of verification.

Editorial take

SuperVenture's structural argument rests entirely on co-location: a dedicated venture forum that would otherwise compete for LP attention against a crowded EMEA calendar instead borrows the institutional gravity of SuperReturn International, converting a potential disadvantage in standalone scale into a concentrated, three-day meeting window for the LP/VC relationship.
