Eurekahedge would again like to thank all the people that came and the sponsors that made last Friday evening possible.

Over 300 people attended the most glamorous and festive hedge funds party in Asia to celebrate not only the winners, but the Asian hedge fund industry for its dynamism, diversity and phenomenal growth.

We also had the privilege of launching The RICE Fund Charity. Returns Invested in Children and Education is a pan-Asian charity that has grown out of the aspirations of a group of global hedge fund colleges to help children and educational projects around Asia. We raised US$79,900 on the evening and would like to give special thanks to HSBC Fund Services, Symphony Financial Partners, Swiss Financial Services, EIM and a collection of others whose names you will find on www.thericefund.org. Please do not hesitate to contact daniellefraser@thericefund.org should you wish to donate.

We would like to congratulate the managers who won on Friday evening.
