Join me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I sit down with Emily Holdman (https://x.com/emilyleldridge), managing director at Permanent Equity. Emily shares her journey from journalism and economics to becoming a leader in acquisitions with a no-intention-to-sell philosophy. In this episode, we focus on intrapreneurship - the art of being entrepreneurial within a larger company, and why it’s a viable but often overlooked path to success. We discuss how Emily evaluates businesses, creatively solves problems in deal-making, and balances risk and opportunity while thriving in a non-founder role. If you’ve ever wondered how to make an impact without starting your own business, this episode is packed with insights you can’t miss.
