Morgan Stanley to lead Institutional Capital conversation at NEXTPredict NYC

15 September 2026
(PRESS RELEASE) -- NEXTPredict.io, a leading media and conference organization and host of NEXTPredict, The World’s Prediction Markets Summit, named Morgan Stanley a strategic partner for NEXTPredict NYC, bringing one of the world’s leading financial institutions into a central role in the summit’s Institutional and Capital programming for its upcoming industry-leading markets summit on 22 and 23 October in New York.

“The next chapter of prediction markets will be shaped by how the largest financial institutions engage with the category,” said Pierre Lindh, co-founder and managing director of NEXTPredict. “Morgan Stanley’s leadership of this discussion raises the standard of the program and brings the institutional authority this conversation requires. NEXTPredict NYC was built to bring together the operators, investors, regulators and market makers defining this industry. If you want to understand where institutional capital sees opportunity, what still stands in the way and what comes next, this is where that conversation will happen.”

As strategic partner, Morgan Stanley will assemble and lead the Institutional and Capital panel on the second day of the summit. The discussion will examine where institutions see opportunity, the barriers preventing broader participation, and the questions around capital, market structure and risk that the category must address as it matures.

"Prediction markets are attracting greater attention across the financial system, but institutional participation will depend on a clear understanding of the opportunity, market structure and risks involved," said Stephen Grambling, head of U.S. gaming, lodging and leisure research at Morgan Stanley. "NEXTPredict has assembled the operators, investors, regulators and market participants closest to the category's development, making it the right forum for a serious institutional conversation. Leading this panel gives us an opportunity to examine both what institutions need from the category and what the category will need from institutions as it develops."

NEXTPredict NYC will bring 2,500 operators, investors, regulators, market makers, founders, suppliers and media to Hudson Yards for two days of discussions, meetings and dealmaking. Across five stages, the people building, funding, regulating and trading prediction markets will examine regulation, liquidity, market infrastructure, institutional capital, forecasting applications, product development and the role of media in distributing market signals.
