Podcasts about Private equity

In this episode, Scott Becker examines how firms like Blackstone, KKR, and Apollo Global Management are under pressure from high interest rates, stalled exits, and too many funds chasing too few deals

Seth Deutsch is the Founder and Managing Partner of Samson Partners Group, a strategic advisory firm that helps founders build investor-ready companies and maximize value before a private equity exit. He has managed teams in over 80 countries, acquired more than 70 companies, executed four recapitalizations, and operated businesses with revenues from $25 million to $2 billion. Seth is the author of The Owner's Manual and the creator of the Exit Value Realization System™ (EVRS), a framework that helps owners reduce risk, increase valuation, and prepare for successful transitions. In this episode… Building a business is one thing. Turning it into a valuable, investor-ready asset is another. What separates founders who scale successfully from those who leave millions on the table at exit? Seth Deutsch, a seasoned dealmaker who has acquired more than 70 companies and led multiple recapitalizations, believes strong exits start with intentional value creation long before a sale. He emphasizes de-risking the business by reducing key-person dependency, improving financial visibility, and strengthening margins. The shift from operator to investor — focusing on predictable future cash flow — is critical. In The Owner's Manual, he outlines specific value levers to help founders scale strategically and exit stronger. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Seth Deutsch, Founder and Managing Partner at Samson Partners Group, to discuss scaling and preparing a business for a successful exit. They explore the seven levers of value creation, how to reduce key-man and client concentration risk, and why investor readiness should start years before a sale. Seth also shares how his personal journey shaped his philosophy on leadership and value creation.

What can HR learn from private equity, where talent, culture, and leadership are part of the deal thesis from day one? In many organisations, the connection between people strategy and business outcomes is still taking shape. In private equity, however, that connection is immediate and unmistakable, with leadership quality, organisational design, workforce capability, and culture being central to the value-creation plan, with clear timelines, defined expectations, and measurable results. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Angela Geffre, Head of Human Capital at GrowthCurve Capital, to discuss what this looks like on the ground. Together, they explore what it really means to run HR in a private equity environment, and what the broader HR profession can learn from it. So tune in, and learn more about: The key people questions to ask when assessing a new portfolio companyHow HR contributes to value creation during a 3–5 year investment horizonWhat truly drives performance and retention across industries and organisation sizesHow HR must adapt when moving from large enterprises to fast-moving portfolio businessesHow AI is reshaping products, operating models, and early-career pathwaysWhy HR must lead the responsible and ethical adoption of AI, not just manage its impact This episode is sponsored by HiBob.

I'm excited to share powerful insights from my latest Capitalist Culture® episode with Jay, a seasoned Wall Street veteran turned family office strategist.This conversation goes deep into wealth, power, responsibility, and the systems shaping our financial future. Here are the highlights you won't want to miss:Jay's Journey: From Wall Street to Family Offices• Early Lessons in M&A: Jay saw firsthand how culture clashes can derail even the most strategic mergers. • The Fee Illusion: On Wall Street, he learned how layered fees quietly erode investor returns long before clients see meaningful gains. • A Turning Point: Disillusioned by the system, he transitioned to serving ultra-high-net-worth families, focusing on control, alignment, and long-term value creation.Financial System Realities• Mortgage Backed Securities: We unpack Wall Street's role in engineering complex financial products and the long tail consequences. • The 401k Dilemma: Alternative investments promise higher returns, but retail investors often need liquidity. That mismatch could create serious stress in future downturns. • Pension Pressure: Longer life expectancies and rising living costs are putting enormous strain on retirement systems.Tribal Lending and Emerging Markets• Economic Diversification: Jay worked with Native American tribes to expand beyond gaming and create sustainable revenue streams. • Operational Optimization: From restructuring lending algorithms to reducing reliance on outside providers, he helped tribes regain efficiency and control. • The First Mass Tort Litigation Fund: Jay built it from scratch before it was acquired by a Wall Street firm.Private Equity, Alpha, and Family Office Strategy• Why Smaller Managers Often Win: Emerging managers frequently outperform large institutions because they are hungry, focused, and disciplined. • Alpha Strategies: As an outsourced CIO, Jay combines low-cost index exposure with targeted private equity and private credit to generate alpha. • Cutting Layers of Fees: Direct co-investments and thoughtful structuring create tax efficiency and preserve capital.Family Office Leadership• Multi-Generational Complexity: Managing wealth means balancing capital allocation, philanthropy, governance, and family dynamics. • The Wealth Narrative: Jay challenges the vilification of entrepreneurs, arguing that job creation and innovation drive societal progress. • One Family at a Time: His current work with the Global Rock Family Office includes taking a textile company private and converting warehouses into data centers.AI, Policy, and the Future• AI Acceleration: Information access has fundamentally changed. What once took weeks now takes minutes. • Verification Matters: AI is powerful, but leaders must cross-check and guard against bias. • Government Reform and Efficiency: We discuss the friction between bureaucracy and entrepreneurial problem-solving.Personal Definition of Success• Fatherhood First: Jay believes success is measured by the character of the next generation. • Leave No Trace: From fishing trips to everyday actions like returning grocery carts, he believes integrity shows up in the small things. • Three Sons, Three Paths: College, auto mechanics, and military flight school. Individual purpose over prestige.Final Thoughts• A Level Playing Field: Jay emphasizSend a textConnect with Kip on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kipknippel/Watch Bite-Sized Clips on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@capitalistculture/shorts

From Enron to the housing crash, warning signs have often been ignored—until it's too late. In this episode, Chris breaks down why private equity and private credit could be the next major financial risk, how Wall Street's deal-making culture prioritizes profits over outcomes, and why the push to include these assets in 401(k)s should raise serious concerns.Chris talks about parallels to The Big Short, explains how insiders profit from complex financial structures, and reveals why investors should be cautious before buying into the hype. When math meets reality, markets always respond—are we headed for another reckoning?

Hey Voices from the Bench community! Jessica Love here, sending a shoutout from Utah! If you're passionate about creating natural, beautiful smiles—but want to simplify your workflow without sacrificing aesthetics—this is for you. I'm honored to be part of Ivoclar's development team introducing a powerful new stain and glaze system featuring Structure Paste, IPS e.max Ceram Art. Create stunning depth and lifelike color in as little as one firing. Let's continue to innovate, simplify, and create meaningful change—one smile at a time. Elvis actually made it down to the exhibition halls this year — and hyperDENT from FOLLOW-ME! Technology was everywhere. Booth after booth, people were talking milling strategies, templates, and workflows. It felt like a full-on CAM takeover. Their Milling Roadmap scavenger hunt had attendees bouncing between Axsys, Imagine, D.O.F., and Roland collecting stamps like responsible adults… Responsible adults chasing a bright orange folding electric hyperDENT scooter. That's what we love about the FOLLOW-ME! team — world-class CAM engineers talking microns and validation protocols one minute, then ripping around Lab Day the next. Serious about precision. Not too serious about themselves. Big shoutout for bringing the brains — and the electric horsepower. Come see and talk to Elvis and Barb at all these amazing shows in 2026* Dental Lab Association of Texas Meeting in Dallas Apr 9-11 https://members.dlat.org/ exocad Insights in Mallorca, Spain Apr 30 - May 1 https://exocad.com/insights-2026 This week we finally get Jay Collins to stop dodging Elvis long enough to sit down and share one of the wildest journeys in dental lab history. From a family split between union steamfitters and dental technicians in Philadelphia to surviving “The Great Brotherly Lab War,” Jay's story is packed with grit, loyalty, and a whole lot of Irish Catholic chaos. What started with an uncle drafted into dental technology during Vietnam eventually turned into a multi-generation lab legacy—and Jay swearing he'd never get into teeth… only to build a powerhouse anyway. After the 2008 crash wiped out his construction business, Jay bet everything on selling outsourced restorations door-to-door, sleeping in his car, showering at the gym, and cold-calling hundreds of offices a week. What followed was the development of his unapologetically bold, psychologically savvy sales approach—what he calls being “aggressively calm.” From pushing doctors to “no,” to matching their energy toe-to-toe, to walking into offices as “the lab” and walking out with cases in hand, Jay breaks down the mindset shift most lab owners desperately need: sales isn't optional, and it definitely isn't accidental. Now leading multiple lab locations under the brilliantly simple name thedentallab.net, Jay shares hard truths about growth, mergers, firing abusive clients, and why cutting your sales department in tough times is the worst move you can make. If you've ever struggled with prospecting, scaling, or standing your ground with doctors, this episode is packed with practical strategies, hilarious role-playing, and a reminder that confidence—backed by accountability—wins every time.

This week on the AmplifyME Market Maker Podcast, Anthony goes solo to break down three big stories — a $58 billion oil merger, a pulled tech IPO, and private equity's move into Indian cricket — all tied together by one theme: survival in the age of AI.In energy, Devon Energy and Coterra Energy are merging to focus on efficiency and basin concentration as shale matures.In tech, Blackstone-backed Liftoff Mobile paused its IPO after AI tools like Anthropic's Claude Cowork cast doubt on the traditional per-seat SaaS model.And in sport, firms including Blackstone, KKR, and CVC are betting on the Indian Premier League, drawn to the scarcity and predictable cash flows of live, un-automatable experiences.From oil to software to sport, this episode explores how capital is repositioning for a world where defensibility and efficiency matter more than ever.(00:00) Intro & Themes in Focus(01:23) Oil Mega-Merger(03:23) AI & The SaaS Shock(05:59) Private Equity Buys Cricket(08:11) The Big PictureWant experience what it would be like to be an M&A adviser?

February 21, 2026: AI Expectations, Investor Bias, and the Future of SavingIt may feel like an uninspiring start to the year, but the S&P 500 is still positive year-to-date. In this week's market update, we look beneath the surface at a rotation away from the mega-cap leaders toward broader participation across the market. We'll also examine why parts of the technology sector—particularly software—have come under pressure as expectations around AI spending and growth continue to evolve.Private markets were once the domain of pension funds and institutions writing $25 million checks. That's changing. We explore how private equity, real estate, and infrastructure are becoming more accessible to individual investors through interval and evergreen funds, digital platforms, and evolving regulations that are widening the door. What does this democratization really mean—and where should investors be cautious?In a recent Wall Street Journal article, a twentysomething recently said she feels her money is safer in the stock market than in a house. That raises an important question: Are we conditioning a generation to believe markets only go up? We step back and discuss how lived experience shapes investment behavior—from Boomers who remember double-digit inflation, to Gen X and the dot-com bust, to Millennials and the housing crash, and Gen Z's era of rapid recoveries and tech-driven growth.And finally, if you're saving 18% into your 401(k) and thoughtfully splitting between traditional and Roth, you're doing a lot right. But when does it make sense to add an IRA — and should that ever come at the expense of your 401(k)? We break down contribution limits, tax diversification, investment flexibility, and fees, and how an IRA can complement a workplace plan.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J.

How does a young agency land a partnership with Netflix, Pepsi, and Doritos? Meet Jay Singh, the founder of Casper Studios and a former LinkedIn Business Development lead who is redefining how we think about distribution in the age of AI. Jay's team recently powered a voice AI experience for Stranger Things that saw over 400,000 fans call in to speak with their favorite characters, resulting in a staggering 30% revenue lift for their partners. In this episode, we move past the AI hype to discuss the "deterministic vs. probabilistic" debate, why Jay builds products specifically to lower his Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), and how he uses a long-horizon LinkedIn strategy to land Private Equity clients. If you want to know how the biggest brands in the world are navigating the transition to AI—and how you can protect yourself from the dark side of voice cloning—listen in. Most entrepreneurs struggle to move from "building" to "distributing." In this episode, Jay Singh, CEO and Founder of Casper Studios, joins Ashok Sivanand to pull back the curtain on the 400,000-call marketing campaign for Netflix, Pepsi, and Doritos. Jay shares the surprising reason why the creators of Stranger Things pulled back on fully generative AI, choosing instead a deterministic model that drove a 30% lift in-store. We explore Jay's background at LinkedIn, the future of digital identity and verification, and a specific 6-month networking framework that can land even the most elusive "whale" clients. Whether you are leading an AI transition in a Private Equity firm or trying to protect your family from voice cloning, this conversation provides a front-row seat to the future of media and technology. In this episode: The Stranger Things Activation: A deep dive into the 400k-call "Teen Telethon" and the ROI of voice AI. Distribution over Product: Why Casper Studios builds "learning products" to acquire enterprise customers. The LinkedIn Strategy: A 6-month framework for building authority and landing mid-market PE clients. Digital Identity: Why a family "safe word" is the most important security tool you own.

Nick welcomes Richard Woods—entrepreneur, former The Apprentice finalist, and founder of the Million Dollar Billboard—to discuss the essential mechanics of high-growth lead generation and sales.  They discuss Richard's philosophy, where the most businesses struggle not because of their product, but because they lack a predictable, scalable system for attracting new customers. Together, they explore the psychological barriers to selling, the importance of personal branding in a digital age, and how to transition from a hustle mindset to a structured, repeatable sales engine that allows a business to truly scale KEY TAKEAWAYS Richard explains that every business needs a Million Dollar Billboard—a singular, compelling message that stops a potential customer in their tracks and clearly articulates the value proposition in seconds. Success is not about sporadic marketing efforts; it requires a documented, repeatable system that ensures a consistent flow of leads regardless of the founder's daily involvement. In a world of automation, people still buy from people; Richard stresses that building a personal brand creates trust and "short-circuits" the traditional sales cycle. The interview highlights that selling should be viewed as a way to help people solve problems rather than a transactional burden BEST MOMENTS "If you can't describe what you do on a billboard and have people understand it in three seconds, your message is too complex." "Most entrepreneurs don't have a sales problem; they have a 'being known' problem." "Scaling is what happens when the systems are stronger than the personalities within the business." "Lead generation is the oxygen of your business; without a constant flow, the fire eventually goes out."

Many operators launch funds to achieve scale and create diversification for themselves and their investors. Funds also attract lower cost of capital and achieve operational efficiencies that result in improved yield. From an investor standpoint, funds mitigate additional risk because of compliance requirements and third-party auditing. Bridger Pennington, co-founder and CEO of Fund Launch, has helped incubate over 400 funds including Real Estate, VC and Private Equity funds. Bridger recently started his own successful GP Stakes micro fund which has generated above market returns.

"Private Equity" er for mange et begrep som høres både lukket og utilgjengelig ut. I realiteten handler det om noe ganske konkret: Å kjøpe selskaper som ikke er børsnoterte, utvikle dem målrettet – og selge dem videre når verdien er løftet betydelig. I denne episoden med Mads Johannesen og Emanuel Furubo fra Carnegie får du en praktisk gjennomgang av hvordan det faktisk foregår.Denne podcasten skal anses som markedsføringsmateriell, og innholdet må ikke oppfattes som en investeringsanbefaling.

In this episode of Poised for Exit, we sit down with Ben Axelrod, Managing Director at Borgman Capital,to explore what business owners should truly understand before partnering with private equity. With a background spanning M&A advisory and investment leadership, Ben offers a thoughtful perspective on how financial buyers approach transactions and long-term partnership.We discuss common misconceptions about private equity, including concerns around loss of control, cultural disruption, and the belief that all firms operate the same way. Not all private equity groups are interchangeable. Alignment, vision, pace of change, and approach to leadership matter just as much as valuation. We also examine the emotional side of transitions, including identity, legacy, and the complexities that often arise in family-owned businesses.This episode provides practical insight into what to look for in a partner and what questions to ask before moving forward. A business sale is more than a financial event. It is a strategic and personal transition, and understanding that distinction can shape the outcome in meaningful ways. Contact Ben Axelrod hereLearn more about Borgman Capital hereLearn about the Trusted WISP tool for today's professionals hereConnect with Julie Keyes, Keyestrategies LLCFounder, Consultant, Author, Pod-caster and Instructor

Private equity is knocking on law firm doors but this conversation asks whether the legal industry is truly ready for the discipline control and long-term tradeoffs that outside capital demands.   Drawing on his background as a private equity executive with deep experience in investment banking and law firm operations, Adil Taha offers a clear-eyed look at what actually happens inside UK PE law firms. He questions whether private equity has delivered lasting value in legal or simply accelerated partner payouts and explains why many benefits remain theoretical until exit. Chris and Howard press on where PE can genuinely help and where it creates risk, from pricing discipline and data-driven decision making to cultural friction inside partnerships. Why do so many deals collapse late in the process? What changes when long-term enterprise building collides with short-term partner incentives?   The conversation also looks ahead. Adil explores whether building a PE-backed firm from scratch could outperform acquiring legacy firms and why minority investments may make more sense for larger practices that want capital without surrendering control. The result is a grounded look at power incentives and the future of UK PE law firms and a candid reminder that private equity is never neutral capital.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Private Equity and the Law Firm Landscape 06:31 Does Private Equity Actually Create Value in Law Firms? 22:19 The Hidden Risks of PE Ownership in Legal Businesses 30:09 The Future of Law Firms and Private Equity 40:30 Independent Law Firms vs Private Equity Pressure 52:20 What Managing Partners Need to Know Before Taking Capital Connect with Adil Taha: Connect with Adil on LinkedIn Taha & Watmough Website   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
