This week, we speak with Jan Simon, a Managing Partner at Vonzeo Capital Partners – a global institutional investor in search funds that invests in 20+ search funds, and 10 follow-on acquisitions, annually.
Jan is also the academic director of the international search fund center at IESE Business School, as well as a lecturer at Berkeley-Haas. Previously, he spent over a decade working for Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, and Salomon Brothers.
In this episode, Jan discusses how he got into the search fund space, where he sees compelling opportunities, how to manage owner transitions, and much more.
