The sold out event brought together more than 500 leaders from business, the investment arena, academia, and policy to discuss and share actionable money-making insights.

Since its inception in 2013, the event has raised $51 million through sponsorships and ticket sales. All proceeds from the conference fund programs that permanently move people out of poverty in New York City.

“As New York rebuilds itself, we have the opportunity to ensure everyone, regardless of what zip code they’re born in, has the same access to economic mobility,” said Paul Tudor Jones II, Co-Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of Tudor Investment Corporation. “This year’s annual J.P. Morgan/Robin Hood Investors Conference brought together leaders committed to that achievable goal. Their continued generosity, alongside J.P. Morgan’s support of the conference, allows every dollar Robin Hood raises to directly help more New Yorkers permanently get out of poverty.”
