KindredCast brings you news, views and insights from the world of media, technology and everything in between. Produced by and curated by Kindred Media and powered by global merchant and investment bank LionTree, the show features in-depth conversations with other industry leaders. You'll get the inside scoop on the dynamics driving media and tech, insights into the future and even some life lessons.
Listen in for a fascinating exploration of how private equity has evolved over the last few decades as LionTree Managing Director Antal Runneboom sits with Brian Ruder, Partner, Head of Investment Committee and Co-Head of Technology at Permira, a worldwide investment firm with over $80B of assets under management. A long-time leader in tech and consumer internet investing, Permira’s portfolio includes Allegro, Genesys, Zendesk, Informatica, Adevinta, NDS, LegalZoom and ancestry.com - as well as a pending acquisition of Squarespace. Their discussion charts the course of private equity, from acquiring companies that “nobody wanted to buy” and steering clear of software companies in the 90s to catalyzing some of the best known tech companies operating today. Brian touches on everything from the current regulatory environment to the disruptive opportunity that AI presents for investors and companies alike. Not to be missed.
