Chicago Alumni Partners is a deal-by-deal investment house founded by senior investment executives and entrepreneurs - worldwide alumni of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. We specialize in pre-IPO equity and secondary market transactions in high-conviction private companies, offering select institutional partners priority access to curated deal flow in breakthrough technology and venture-backed growth businesses.
Proprietary deal sourcing through a curated network of founders, early investors, and institutional holders. We lead from origination through closing — full transparency on cap table and structure.
Rigorous institutional-grade due diligence, bespoke structuring, full regulatory compliance, and execution through FINRA-regulated broker-dealers. Our team has executed across asset classes, cycles, and geographies for two decades.
We offer bank private deal desks a true co-investment framework — preferred economics, early allocation access, and white-glove deal support. Your clients benefit; your desk leads.
We are selectively partnering with heads of private deal desks at global banks to co-invest in secondary transactions across the world's most compelling private names. Allocation is limited and prioritized for committed partners.
