12 SELECTION PROCESS ILPA SUMMITMATCH: A UNIQUE SCHEDULING ALGORITHM Over the years ILPA has developed and leveraged a proprietary meeting- scheduling algorithm, the results which continuously receive outstanding reviews from attendees. ALTERNATIVE TO THE RANKING PROCESS Interested in meeting with LPs interested in you? GPs may opt out of completing the selection process to receive a meeting schedule filled with LPs that ranked them highly. GPs will, however, still have the option to select up to five LPs that you “cannot meet”. This LP interest-driven option started in 2014, and a number of GPs continue to choose this option each year to meet with only those LPs who particularly want to meet with them. HOW DO I SELECT LPs? When LPs and GPs login to the meeting scheduling system, they will be asked to select one another based on a scoring system between 1 (ideal) and 5 (cannot meet with). During the optimization process, an algorithm will translate LP and GP selections into a combined GP/LP score, which is used to create a schedule of meetings based on mutual interest. 1 The meeting scheduling process optimizes the preferences of LPs and GPs in accordance with their individual selections made in late September each year. 2 Attendees rank each other in a scoring system using profile information on organizational characteristics and investment strategies provided at registration. 3 Attendees will receive up to 10 private meetings during the two-day event. In some cases, they may be scheduled to meet with two LPs in a single time slot. 4 In order to ensure the meetings are relevant for all, LPs will either be prospective or existing investors.
