Kelso & Company’s Post

When it comes to ensuring a successful private equity partnership, a lot of lessons are learned along the way. We enjoyed sharing what makes the Kelso & Company partnership with Vālenz® Health great, at the Self-Insurance Institute of America, Inc. Institute of America Corporate Growth Forum! @Robert Gelb @Hank Mannix

For a company joining a partnership with a private equity group, having experience as both a buyer and a seller adds a lot of clarity into what makes the right acquisition opportunity. Even if you haven’t been in that position, you’ll learn success requires a powerful investment philosophy, an aligned partner, and enabling and executing on the plan to achieve the vision. Join us at the Self-Insurance Institute of America, Inc. Corporate Growth Forum on May 6. Vālenz® CEO Robert Gelb and Kelso & Company’s Hank Mannix will talk about three key ingredients of a successful private equity partnership.

Kelso is proud to be partnered with WilliamsMarston LLC, a national leader in accounting advisory, tax, and valuation services. Incredible testimonials just released that showcase WM’s partnership approach, deep technical knowledge, and high-quality work within the Office of the CFO!

We are ready to host an outstanding session with Robert Gelb as we share more about working in lockstep to drive growth. Join us on May 6 at the Self-Insurance Institute of America, Inc. Corporate Growth Forum for some great give-and-take on successful private equity partnerships! 

We’re looking forward to the SIIA Corporate Growth Forum, where our Managing Director Hank Mannix will join Vālenz® CEO Robert Gelb to talk about private equity partnerships like ours and the best ways to make sure they’re successful. We hope to see you May 6-8 in Greenville, S.C! Self-Insurance Institute of America, Inc.
