Gagnier Communications handled the high-profile launch of GrowthCurve Capital by Sumit Rajpal, former co-head of Goldman Sachs merchant banking division.
GrowthCurve debuts with a team of 20 investors and executives, many of whom had worked with Rajpal during his 20-year stint at Goldman.
The private equity firm says its mission is "to differentiate itself by harnessing the power of technology and AI, enabled with human capital, to drive sustainable growth and long-term value creation in portfolio companies."
After stepping down from Goldman in early 2020, Rajpal signed on as senior policy advisor to SEC chairman Jay Clayton on issues regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets.
