If you aren't able to turn up a list of growth equity firms in San Francisco as an IB analyst, you're beyond hope.
Don't worry, haven't started working yet. Just curious as I am unfamiliar with the space and region.
TPG Growth
general atlantic
there are essentially two types of growth guys
for the first...you have spectrum, summit, tcv, ta, norwest, redpoint (started its growth equity recently), etc
for the second...TPG growth, silver lake sumeru, STG, vector, Thoma Bravo, etc.
GA is definitely not a "pure" growth" player as they focus a lot more on bigger (upper MM) deals
a lot of players in sf. if you havent started working yet, then dont worry about it. once you start work, you'll get familiar with the right firms.
Thanks Ricquels and ledger i appreciate the input

thanks!
Unless its under a newly filed name (being post Lehman collapse) or is a completely separate entity, how does #10 on tht list exist or how is it able to use that name? Wouldnt it just be under Barclays now?
Excuse me if the answer is obvious, i was just confused...thanks
Good attention to detail. You should probably just google it yourself next time.
