Pinegrove Venture Partners' Gaurav Mathur joined Samir Kaji on the Venture Unlocked podcast to discuss the evolving VC secondaries landscape. They covered: → Market Growth & Liquidity: VC AUM has soared to $4T (with $3T unrealized), driving a need for stronger liquidity options. → Tight Distributions: Capital called vs. distributed hit a record 4.5x last year; just 15% of 2015–2019 funds have reached 1x DPI. → Longer Timelines: Companies now stay private ~11 years on average (up 43% post-GFC), reshaping venture investment. → Investor Diversification: Non-VC investors now make up 35–40% of direct investment (vs. 15% historically). → Future Outlook: Private markets are expected to grow from $13 trillion to over $20 trillion by 2030, with VC and growth equity fueling tech innovation.

It was great to join the global UBS conference in Zurich last Friday and share the stage with Ben Way, Megan Starr, Suganya Veeraraghavan and Sven-Christian Kindt to discuss the Intersection of AI and climate.   Here were my key messages:   🌍 AI Infrastructure: A $7 Trillion Opportunity 💡 Unlocking the transformative potential of AI over the next two decades hinges on addressing 4 critical challenges: 1. Capital formation. Solution: AI framework commercialization will accelerate capital flow. 2️. Grid capacity and reliability: Solution: get closer to the power source, especially for “training” workloads. 3. Permitting processes: Solution: President Biden’s AI Infrastructure Executive Order and Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s AI Plan underscore the commitment of governments to remove barriers. 4. Advanced GPU manufacturing capacity. Solution: Strategic partnerships similar to the one Brookfield entered into with Intel.   💻 The clean energy and data center connection: The future of AI depends not only on smarter and faster infrastructure deployment but also on sustainable power growth. A united effort from governments, tech leaders, utilities, and innovators can: ✅ Build resilient and reliable behind-the-meter infrastructure where grid capacity is constrained. ✅ Foster more advanced policy frameworks where regulation is an impediment to growth.  ✅ Align AI growth with clean energy goals to ensure sustainable growth.   At Brookfield, with our best-in-class renewable / nuclear power capabilities, and large-scale data center development expertise, we’re well-positioned to work with all stakeholders to build-out the next phase of AI infrastructure globally.   #AI #CleanEnergy #DataCenters #Innovation #Sustainability

Freight containers carry half of global traded goods and our portfolio company Triton International owns 1 in every 6 of those containers, making them an integral building block for the foundation of global trade. When we partnered with them in 2022, our access to capital, global reach and owner-operator history put us in a strong position to help the business achieve its full value in a take-private transaction.

Mark Carney, who today announced that he is leaving Brookfield to pursue his candidacy for the Canadian Liberal Party leadership, has been a tremendous partner to us since he joined the firm nearly five years ago.   He has been instrumental in establishing Brookfield as the leading private capital investor in the global energy transition—and today our platform benefits from an unmatched scale, a leading team of experienced investors, and strong client relationships around the world. We are proud to have been named the world’s largest impact investor for two years running, thanks to more than $30 billion of dedicated transition capital raised in less than four years.   We are sorry to see him go, but we recognize that he does so to fulfill his deep sense of public service to Canada.   We wish him all the best in this new pursuit.
