Dipan Patel, co-chief executive officer of Permira, joined Goldman Sachs' 'Exchanges: Great Investors' to discuss the industry-specialized investment approach and private partnership structure Permira uses, and how this model differs from institutions that scale through platform size and breadth. He also shared Permira's strategies for transforming portfolio companies, what makes related assets attractive to strategic buyers, and how to assess the technical risks of a portfolio.
