Today, we’re excited to announce our 3rd Annual Emerging Manager Circle Summit. When I started the Emerging Manager Circle 5 years ago, the goal was simple. I wanted to find a safe space for me to learn and grow alongside my peers - those experiencing the difficulty and excitement of what I was going through. Much like the founders running companies, I found myself overwhelmed by the magnitude of starting a firm, raising capital, building a team; all responsibilities that were above and beyond my day job of investing in companies and helping those founders through their early journeys to product market fit. I needed help. The Emerging Manager Circle was a selfish call-to-action to ask for help from my peers and I’m confident we wouldn’t exist as a firm today without that initial group of individuals and the many more that have joined us since.
I'm just running across this and really excited. As an EM - there aren't a ton of resources focused on the uniqueness of our challenges. Looking forward to participating in the community. FWIW - first saw mention of this on X.
Many thanks for sharing your initiative Rick! It's a lot of inspiration as I'm trying to build the same group for aspiring Managing Partner/General Partner of M&A, VC, and PE.
