Investing Essentials: Value Creation in Uncertain Times

​Join Polsky Center Investor-in-Residence Duane Jackson, founder and managing partner of Author Capital Partners, for a discussion on how private equity can create value in uncertain times. "Draw down your revolvers and batten down the hatches" is the advice many savvy private equity investors offer portfolio companies in a downturn. These same investors, however, also look for opportunities. Downturns offer the chance for accretive M&A and for private equity-backed companies, as they can also drive long-term value through operational best practices. In-person attendance and active participation is encouraged.
