George Roberts, data scientist and principal at Roberts Capital, shares his insights on how to get your foot in the door with a GP team, steps to becoming a thought leader, and why he thinks interest rates may fall sooner rather than later.

Key Takeaways:

He emphasizes the importance of understanding historical data and market sentiment when making investment decisions.

He explains the importance of driving for deals, being patient, and playing the long game in finding lucrative opportunities.
