Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust PLC is an actively managed, low-cost investment trust, investing in a high-conviction global portfolio of companies, with the aim of maximising total returns over the long term. The managers look for strong businesses with above-average returns and aim to achieve a greater return than the FTSE All-World Index (in sterling terms) over a five-year rolling period.

This year’s annual conference welcomes industry experts and company leaders to explore space innovation, revolutionary banking, plus exclusive Q&amp;A with the Scottish Mortgage Team.&nbsp;

The Annual General Meeting for Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust PLC will take place at The National Galleries, Princes Street, Edinburgh, on Thursday 2 July. This event is for shareholders only.&nbsp;

As we approach our 2025 Digital Conference, why not look back at our inaugural 2024 event? We welcomed Kristo Käärmann, co-founder of cross-border payments platform Wise. And the Scottish Mortgage Team discussed the portfolio's ability to provide shareholders with exposure to private companies, a notoriously difficult market for individual investors to access.&nbsp;
