On October 16, 2014, the Bucknell Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF) was fortunate enough to host Gene Gorab, CEO and President of Greenfield Partners, and Bucknell Class of 1985. He spoke about his firm and how it functions as a real estate private equity operation, along with some of the factors that have made him so successful over the years. He also explained the current macroeconomic backdrop in the United States, and offered insights into the world of private equity.
