  • Great insight

    I’m powering through from Ep 1 to the present day and there is so much great information in this podcast. Sam has a very laid back style which gives the CEO guests plenty of space to talk about their experience.

  • A very good podcast

    Short interviews with an interesting range of people from both sides of the investing fence...both investors and management. Maybe in the future we could hear from a few people who admit to mistakes and tell us what they have learnt. PE is a portfolio business and all deals contribute to the success of the portfolio.
