E50: Founding GLG and Growing it into a $600 Million Revenue Powerhouse — Mark Gerson

E50 • Mar 14, 2024 • 26 mins

Mark Gerson sits down with David Weisburd to discuss founding GLG and growing it into a $600 million revenue powerhouse, 3i and its community of world-class private investors and the importance of an ROI driven approach to non-profit work.

Key Points

  • Building a knowledge exchange network like GLG involves identifying and recruiting experts who can address specific, real-time questions from clients, rather than producing generalized industry guides.
  • Creating a community for private investors, such as 3i, can systematize deal-sharing and co-investing while providing educational support to improve investment decisions.
  • Effective philanthropy should be approached with the same ROI mindset as business investments, focusing on life-saving, pain-alleviating, and opportunity-creating outcomes for the poor.
