Your Course of Study

Through lectures, group discussions and case studies in the Private Equity and Venture Capital program, you will develop a new perspective on the multifaceted issues that investors face over the course of numerous market cycles. Engaging in robust debates and practical exercises will strengthen your problem-solving and decision-making skills. As a result, you will return to your company better prepared to formulate an effective investment strategy, raise needed capital, and facilitate productive dealmaking.

Program elements include:

Private Equity Globalization

Today, capital flows freely across both national and regional boundaries. While exploring the dynamics of global capital and global companies, you will improve your ability to:

  • Manage a multinational fund versus one run from a single office
  • Adjust your investment strategies for the varying demand-and-supply dynamics of different countries and regions
  • Assess the impact of traditional management practices and the localization of investments
  • Anticipate exit difficulties and other risks

Emerging Markets

New high-growth markets bring a wealth of opportunities, but often require a different investment style. As you delve into the complexities of emerging-market investments, you will learn how to:

  • Identify new funding opportunities
  • Embrace earlier-stage investments
  • Understand the vast differences between fundraising and investing efforts
  • Make decisions that recognize the distinct financial and cultural aspects of a country or region

The Implications of Both Firm and Fund Size

Are your investment strategies aligned with the size of your firm and your fund? Addressing the unique challenges faced by firms at different stages of growth, the program helps you to:

  • Understand how the size of your firm or fund affects the perceptions of investors, target-company managers and owners, as well as the broader investment community
  • Explore how firm and fund size can influence deal sourcing and selection, enterprise valuation, portfolio mix, and the management of portfolio companies
