Welcome to CAIA Pennsylvania Chapter
The Pennsylvania Chapter of the CAIA Association serves the alternative investment community throughout the state by promoting professional development and excellence to its members across the alternative investment spectrum. Chapter events will present well-known experts in their respective fields who can share their knowledge. In addition to building professional relationships, the Chapter seeks to create a sense of community among the members through social gatherings which rotate between locations in the greater Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg areas. We welcome you as a member and participant in our mission, and look forward to seeing you at a future event.
Founded in 2016.
