Elite / Rising PE Shops

The names are endless in PE if you step out of the realm of MMF. Feel free to post any PE shop names / locations here with any details you can provide about pay, size, sector focus, founders (i.e. ex-BX / KKR, etc.), or anything like that.

Anyone know of a good place to source these names for recruiting?

Patient Square Capital is a fund that’s seeking $3 billion for a healthcare-focused fund. Head guy is Jim Momtazee, who led the healthcare group at KKR. Recruited some other high flyers.

Arcline debuted with a $1.5B fund two years ago (started by a partner from the industrials group at Golden Gate). Just raised a $2.75B fund recently. Unsurprisingly seems to have an industrials focus.
