As investors, we were never satisfied by the conferences and events we have been to.  The topics were too theoretical, the actionable ideas were scarce, the speakers were inaccessible, or the networking opportunities were either few or not focused.  So we decided to do something about it.  We created the Cyprus Value Investor Conference. A small private gathering of up to 40 investors who meet in Cyprus every September/October to share investment ideas, and network in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. As value investors ourselves, we made sure that the event itself provided the best value for money.  The fee is small (eur 200-300) and its purpose is to cover the costs which include the venue, lunches, dinners and other activities.  Special hotel rates at the local 4-star venue are secured that start at eur 80-100. The event was organized for the first time in 2016 by Sophocles Sophocleous (fatalpha.com) and Tim du Toit (quant-investing.com).
