Matthew — congrats on launching Seekye Capital. been working on outbound origination with service and trade investors and your fund has been on my radar. would be good to connect.
Matthew — though we share a PE background (you building Seekye, me at Treis in London), I've seen first-hand how challenging early proprietary origination can be. Been helping funds like Mentmore and Wingman with their outbound origination — curious what email infrastructure you're using these days — still mostly on shared IPs like Instantly, or have you moved to private/dedicated senders? Happy to share what's working best for similar service and trade funds if useful. — Russ

Matthew — hope you had a good weekend. wanted to reach out — congrats on launching Seekye Capital, always impressed by those who've taken the leap. though we share a PE background, I hope to one day do the same and acquire a services platform. in the meantime I've been working on the origination side with funds like Backer Group and Mentmore — curious how you're thinking about origination at Seekye. mostly proprietary or still seeing a lot through brokers? very best, Russell linkedin.com/in/russellt23
