TCV is one of the largest growth equity firms in the world and has invested over $16B in public and private technology companies.

David has over a decade of experience in the global tech industry and he focuses on investments in fintech, digital media, and e-commerce, including investments in Airbnb, Brex, and Klarna.

We also dive into why David made the jump into growth equity, what he looks for when making an investment, and advice for young professionals pursuing a career in technology investing.
