Before it was fashionable for private equity and venture firms to promote themselves as value-add partners, Daniel and the Bridge team believed in creating a culture of collaboration from the start. This philosophy has resulted in management teams, as well as our limited partners, being Bridge’s best advocates. Since co-founding Bridge over 20 years ago, Daniel has been actively involved with Bridge portfolio companies, including QDiscovery, FreightWatch, PV Media Group, and Stonegate Capital, often as a Board Director or Advisor. Daniel graduated from the University of Michigan.
