Hey Andrejka — similar IB → PE path (CS & Greenhill in London on my end). been thinking a lot about origination in energy and power infrastructure lately. would be good to connect.
Hey Andrejka, similar IB → PE background, though I was in London at Greenhill not on the energy side at Credit Suisse and Blackstone like you. origination was always the same story for me — clear thesis, decent relationships, but no proprietary system of record. the people, tools and ideas were never really connected. every deal virtually sourced from scratch, nothing compounding over time. curious if that's still how most funds operate or if I'm behind the times? — Russ
Hey Andrejka, looks like we share a similar IB → PE path, though I was at CS & Greenhill in London doing european growth deals not at Credit Suisse and Blackstone building out energy infrastructure positions like you. the pattern I keep seeing with most funds is weirdly consistent — strong thesis, solid network, but no proprietary system of record. the people, tools and ideas are never really connected. every deal virtually sourced from scratch, nothing compounds on itself. curious if that resonates or if you've already built something different at Dynamix given you're standing it up from scratch? — Russ
hey Andrejka — no worries if the timing's off. most funds I talk to have tried some version of building origination in-house — analyst pulling from Pitchbook or Grata, maybe using ChatGPT to help qualify, dumping it into a spreadsheet. each piece kind of works, but there's no system of record tying it together. tonnes of wasted energy and everything ends up out of sync. been helping a few funds like Mentmore work through that. curious if you've run into the same thing at Dynamix? — Russ
totally get it if origination infrastructure isn't top of mind right now — especially with the IPO filing and everything else on your plate. the funds I've seen crack it early just tend to compound deal flow in a way that's hard to replicate later. if it ever moves up the list, I'm easy to find. — Russ

Recent Posts and Quotes: March 10, 2026: Discussed the misuse of continuation vehicles in private equity. "If a company was overpaid for, lightly managed, and never fundamentally improved, more time is not a strategy. That is not an alignment issue. It is an operational issue." March 9, 2026: Shared themes from the Experience POWER advisory board meeting. "The line between resources (oil, gas, mining) and power infrastructure is blurring as solving the AI energy challenge requires the full value chain." February 24, 2026: Analyzed the energy landscape in Latin America and Venezuela.

Treat it like a repair project with historical burden: sequence the work, prove reliability, then scale." January 29, 2026: Addressed the AI energy crisis. "AI growth is being framed as a technology problem. It’s not. It’s an infrastructure problem... Software scales exponentially. Infrastructure scales linearly."

Capital doesn’t solve those problems but execution does." December 29, 2025: On the necessity of fossil fuels for AI. "Over the next five to ten years, the only solution that is reliable, scalable, and executable is natural gas, complemented by renewables where they actually work... Data centers need 99.99% uptime.
