Wisconsin's Leading Alternative Investment Club
About
The Wisconsin Private Equity Club (WPEC) is a student-run organization dedicated to those who have an interest in private equity and other alternative investment classes. The club was established in 2024 by a group of students interested in expanding Wisconsin's presence in the private equity industry. The organization's primary mandate is to provide a fundamental education and introduction to private equity, private credit, and venture capital investing.
Our Programs
Led by upperclassmen, teams of students will experience a simulated private equity investment and pitch their ideas to industry professionals. These projects enable and encourage students to apply their knowledge to real-world investments.
