The Rice Energy Finance Summit is an annual conference promoting forward-looking discussions on the most relevant energy finance, investment and strategy topics affecting the global energy industry. The conference serves as a platform for senior executives, investors, advisers and policymakers to share their perspective with over 400 fellow energy industry professionals and Rice students, alumni, faculty and staff.
The conference’s strategic theme this year, “Shifting Goalposts: Energy at the Nexus of Capital Discipline and Value Creation,” aims to explore the linkages between the industry’s commitment to capital discipline and the imperative to generate sustainable returns for investors, all against a backdrop of changing business models, capital markets constraints, increasing private ownership and uncertain growth prospects.
