UNSW Alternative Investment Society - AIS

UNSW AIS is a society that aims to foster a greater understanding of, and interest in Alternative Investments among students.

The UNSW Alternative Investment Society (AIS) is a student-run society that aims to foster a greater understanding of, and interest in Alternative Investments among the students of the university. The society’s primary goal is to provide networking opportunities and increase the employability of UNSW’s students in a field that is currently under-represented within the University. While alternative

investment is a very broad term, our society is focused on, but not limited to: private equity, venture capital and hedge funds. Throughout the University year we will be hosting workshops, educational talks, social events and much more. If you're interested in Alternative Investments or just want to know more about them, be sure to follow us on Facebook and sign up on Orgsync to keep up to date with our events.
