Based on the most helpful WSO content, the frequency of sourced deals in growth equity can vary depending on the firm, strategy, and stage of the companies being targeted. For example:
If you're actively sourcing, you should aim to consistently generate deal flow, potentially reviewing multiple opportunities monthly. A benchmark could be getting serious looks at least once a month or more, depending on your firm's expectations and the market you're targeting.

Once a week you should be presenting a relevant deal (first meeting). Use long-list platforms to build an initial list, then AI to enrich / assess fit, and then push that to an outreach tool (or do it yourself). Happy to share best practices in terms of tools and set-up (if interested)
