The Event

Strata at InvestOps US 2026 – the event brought together a cross section of the global investment operations community. Over three days, COOs, CTOs, platform leaders and operations specialists gathered to exchange ideas, compare experiences and explore how firms are navigating an increasingly complex investment landscape.

Strata was proud to sponsor the event and to meet with many of the firms shaping the next generation of investment operating models. Conversations at the booth centred on themes that continue to dominate the industry: platform adoption, operating model design, investment compliance, and the challenge of delivering complex change programmes while keeping day to day operations running smoothly.

The Discussion

For many senior leaders, the discussion was not only about technology, but about confidence in delivery. Large platform implementations and transformation programmes carry real accountability and operational risk. Firms want assurance that the partners they choose bring practical experience, proven methodologies and the ability to deliver change without unnecessary disruption.
