Investing in Private Companies: Insights from Adam Fried
Last week, I hosted a webinar with Adam Fried, founder of Friedom Partners, where he shared his disciplined approach to investing in private companies.
Adam’s team reviews thousands of deals every year, focusing solely on those that balance strong growth potential with downside protection, a strategy that has delivered impressive returns over the years.
In this session, Adam walks through key insights on evaluating private investments when public information is limited and how structure plays a vital role in managing risk.
