Emerging managers

Nothing is more important to the growth of the private equity industry than the emerging manager community. Itโ€™s here where the rock star firms of the future are born and raised. The first-time funds, especially, are vital in mapping the direction the industry takes โ€“ whether they embrace diversity and inclusion, adapt to changing markets and technology, and find new areas to raise capital.

This page is dedicated to new managers and the LPs who support them. Weโ€™ll work hard to feature new firms, spinouts, fundraisings, dive into their strategies and pedigrees to find what makes them special and helps them stand out in the crowded fundraising field.
