The Art & Finance Initiative

Since its inception in 2008, Deloitte Private’s Art & Finance Conference has been celebrating the convergence of finance, culture, and business.

Every two years, experts from around the globe conduct a survey to capture sentiment and identify emerging trends within the Art & Finance industry. These findings are compiled in our comprehensive, biennial Art & Finance Report, which are then discussed more deeply at our annual Art & Finance Conference of the same and following year.

Key moments from last year’s conference

Last year’s conference examined how Family Offices can leverage best practices, emerging technologies and fractional ownership to build a portfolio of the future.
