Starting Private Equity Fund

by a professional from San Jose State University

Has anyone started their own Private Equity Fund?

I've done operations consulting for many years. I'm looking to acquire businesses and operate.

It appears to be more efficient to raise capital, acquire businesses and manage them.

Looking to networking with PE Founders.

Hey Pete. Would love to chat when you have time. I'm a former ops consultant and currently own and operate a small business in specialty healthcare and retail healthcare. I finish BSchool next year and my plan is to acquire businesses and operate them at a "fund level" instead of focusing solely on one business. Let me know if you're interested in discussing/brainstorming at some point.
