It seems all of my colleagues in the US capital markets are trying to find the word to describe "beyond busy." At this point in the year, companies have announced end-of-year and Q1 earnings; many are involved in a capital raising event, the calendar is full of conferences, and the markets are keeping all of us on our toes.
Despite the craziness of supporting our portfolio of Featured Companies, onboarding new ones, and actively partnering with 4 conferences, we always make time to email and stay connected with our friends in the industry.
While this email is obviously sent in bulk to our 58K+ list, please feel free to reply, and I will personally reply, text, and I will text back, or call, and I will answer.
Talk soon, and good luck managing your madness. Reach out anytime to commiserate about insane work hours and never-ending "to-do" lists.
