Welcome back to Season 5 of the HPScast. Today, host Colbert Cannon sits with two special guests: CEO of the Equity Alliance, Claude Grunitzky, and board member, Julia Paliare, who also serves as Managing Director at RSL Investments. We hear how they're leading the charge for a more diverse asset management industry through the Equity Alliance. We see how Claude’s education in London and at MIT contributed to his success as an entrepreneur, launching diverse companies like Trace, a leading music and fashion magazine.
