This is Beer Stories for Private Equity.
Time moves slowly, but it can pass rather quickly. It explains why the oldest (and perhaps the best) ways of measuring time is through stories. Stories are what give us inspiration. Make life more meaningful. And it's stories that help us cultivate relationships with those around us. Which is why over the past four decades, I've adopted a business philosophy:Do business with people I can sit down and have a beer with, sharing stories.
My name is Scott Markman, and Welcome to Beer Stories for Private Equity. On this podcast, weâll share war stories of portco and fundraising success.Deep dives into trending topics. And also, personal stories of career paths, risks and rewards, and ultimately what matters. So I invite you to pull up a virtual bar seat, and listen to PEâs best podcast devoted to sharing beer stories from the world of private equity.
