Having initially been reluctant to engage with the possibilities of social media, the hedge fund industry is now embracing the networking, marketing, and recruitment possibilities that social media – particularly enterprise network LinkedIn – presents.
In the previous part of this series, we listed 25 of the top LinkedIn groups for the hedge fund industry, covering everything from the big groups targeted at the industry as a whole to more region- or specialisation-specific groups where members can connect with each other, share knowledge and resources, and discuss industry and sub-sector-specific topics. Here are the rest of the groups, together with links (click on the group title), the administrators, the number of members, the most active members, and the geographical area that they are most concerned with.
