In this episode, we speak with Chris Hadley, Managing Director at Berkshire Partners, a 100% employee-owned investor in private and public equity. The private equity team invests in well-positioned, growing companies across business & consumer services, healthcare, industrials, and technology & communications.
Founded in 1986, Berkshire is currently investing from its Fund XI, which closed in 2024 with $7.8 billion in commitments. The firm has completed over 150 investments and is known for partnering closely with management teams to drive growth across market cycles.
A leader within the firm’s healthcare investment team, Chris has demonstrated exceptional leadership and strategic insight over his 27-year tenure.
