Under the leadership of Adams, Meyer increased assets managed by diverse managers by more than threefold, to 40% of all assets under management, and women managers by tenfold, to 25% of AUM, proving that hiring diverse managers is not a concessionary practice.

She has engaged in pro bono legal work on behalf of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights, the Homeless Prenatal Program in San Francisco, and the Children’s Defense Fund.

  • Private Equity and Corporate Governance: Retrospect and Prospect
    353 Corporate Governance: An International Review, 2009, 17(3): 353–375 Private Equity and Corporate Governance: Retrospect and Prospect Mike Wright*, Kevin Amess, Charlie Weir and Sourafel Girma ABSTRACT Manuscript Type: Review Research Question/Issue: We assess the corporate governance role and the impact of private equity. Research Findings/Results: Private equity firms are heterogeneous in their characteristics and activities. Nevertheless, a corporate governance structure with private equity involvement provides incentives to reduce agency and free cash flow problems. Additionally, private equity enhances the efficacy of the market for corporate control. Private equity investment is associated with performance gains, with such gains not simply being a result of transfers from other stakeholders. In the short term, the benefits appear clear to outgoing owners and to the new owners and management while in the longer term the benefits are less clear. While non-financial stakeholders argue that other stakeholders suffer in the short and long term, the evidence to support this view is at best mixed. Theoretical Implications: By reviewing a comprehensive selection of theoretical and empirical papers published in refereed academic journals in finance, economics, entrepreneurship, and management as well as publicly available working papers and private equity industry studies, we develop a more complete understanding of private equity investment. Agency theory has shortcomings when applied to the broad sweep of private equity-backed buyout types, as in some cases pre-ownership change agency problems were likely low (e.g., family firms), in some cases the exploitation of growth opportunities owes more to the entrepreneurial behavior of managers than to improved incentives, and in some institu- tional contexts outside Anglo-Saxon countries traditional agency issues are different and stakeholder interests are more important.

  • The Rise of Late-Stage Funding for European Technology Scale-Ups
    Blooming Late: The rise of late-stage funding for European technology scale-ups NOVEMBER 2019 Introduction Europe’s technology industry continues to grow up. Across the EU, Israel, Russia and Turkey, startup ecosystems are flourishing, expanding and - in a few places - maturing into veritable world-class hotbeds for innovation. Evidently, challenges remain and Europe will have to overcome many of them to even have a chance of staying competitive in an ever-evolving world - and with haste to boot. To continue scaling up and accelerate the maturation process of its key tech hubs, Europe has to play to its strengths and eliminate some of its inherent weaknesses to mitigate the risk of getting left behind. Two of these weaknesses have historically been the lack of major exits and late-stage financing rounds (€100 million and more) for Europe’s fastest-growing tech businesses as catalysts for growth. As we’ve detailed in previous reports on the influx of capital for Europe’s finest tech startups, there has been a tremendous increase in investment volume for early-stage and growth-stage companies in recent years, with no signs of a slowdown so far. Numbers only tell part of a story, but the rise in seed and growth capital (Series A-B-C) flowing to European tech businesses across the region paints a picture of a healthy collection of ecosystems with potential for further growth. But when it comes to really big rounds of financing, Europe hasn’t really seen many of those to date, certainly not in comparison to the US and, increasingly, China.

    Innovation We strive to create opportunities with new approaches and resources. Our Guiding Integrity Principles We do the right thing for the right reasons. Our culture is defined by six core values. They are the key to our storied legacy and the guide to our daily business decisions. Excellence We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, and we seek to exceed expectations. Entrepreneurship We believe that great organizations are built by employing and partnering with the best and brightest people. Talent We believe in fostering individual creativity and a sense of ownership. Stewardship We are dedicated to safeguarding the capital and trust of our clients, and advancing their best interests. A Letter From Managing Partner Peter Lawson-Johnston II At the time of writing this letter, the world is enduring a health crisis while the United States is undergoing a self-examination of societal inequities, both of which are challenging our preconceived notions of where and how we work, learn, worship, and most importantly, how we connect with each other as a community. This is our fourth annual Impact Report that documents our achievements and values as they relate to contributing to the communities where we live and work. But how do you assess your impact on the world, as a business, and as a corporate citizen, when the world seemingly has fundamentally changed? A crisis of this scale is remarkable in how it forces one to focus simultaneously on the uncertainty of today as well as the uncertainty of next year or future decades. Uncertainty can be insidious, and it is easy to withdraw or disengage.

  • Online Pet Supply Retailing
    9-809-117 APRIL 9, 2009 TOM NICHOLAS DAVID CHEN Online Pet Supply Retailing The pet industry is a great eulogy for the entire dot-com industry . Blind is the operating word. Lots of blindly, highly funded management teams and a blind anticipation that customers would use the internet. — Frank Creer, venture capitalist, May 20011 In a world of disruptive internet technologies, how do you know if your business model is crazy or brilliant, and what do you do as management to maximize your chances of success? — Josh Newman, Mar. 2009 From 1995 to 1999, the U.S. experienced a period of tremendous growth in its information technology (IT) sector. The IT industry, although it accounted for less than 10% of the U.S. economy’s total output, contributed disproportionately to economic growth.2 Consequently, as venture capital money flowed freely, many companies developed an institutional mentality of rapid expansion, with market share taking on crucial importance in their quest to dominate the competitive landscape. The mantra was “get big, fast” and the goal was to be first to IPO, so that cash could be inexpensively raised to fund more rapid expansion (and investors could reap huge returns). Hundreds of new entrants crowded the market, spending vast sums for the purposes of customer acquisition and revenue growth. One market that was particularly contentious was online pet supply retailing. Pet supply retailing had an estimated worth of $31 billion in 1997, and in the late 1990s, several startups and brick-and- mortar-based companies launched online retail stores, hoping to become the premiere (and perhaps the only) online pet supplies retailer.
