Season 3 | Episode 2: Growing Up: How Growth Equity Is Defining Its Place in Private Markets

Growth equity has evolved from the “middle child” between venture and buyout into a distinct and increasingly institutionalized part of the private markets ecosystem. Its role in capital formation, the characteristics of the companies it targets, and the ways value is created have sharpened its identity in a post-COVID market. In this episode, we are joined by Steve McCourt of Meketa and Suzanne Gauron of General Atlantic as they unpack the modern growth equity playbook, how managers compete and differentiate themselves today, and why the strategy’s repositioning matters for investors.Guests:Suzanne Gauron, Managing Director of Capital Solutions, General AtlanticStephen P.
