Golden Gate Capital

As part of our partnership with Synergist Network, a national non-profit and network of women in investing, we hosted an investor panel and networking event this week for female investors across the SF / Bay Area. The event featured a panel discussion with Jennifer Zhu (Golden Gate Capital), Caroline Sohr (Hellman & Friedman), Katie Clasen (Prelude Ventures), and Felicity Tang (TPG) and was hosted by our Associates, Janani Kalyan and Jennifer Ma, at Golden Gate Capital. We were proud to welcome over 30 women to the event for a meaningful discussion around building a long-term career in investing. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Synergist and supporting their mission of empowering female investors.
