Middle Market Musings

Episode 81 Jack Glover, Incline Equity Partners

Andy Greenberg & Charlie Gifford Season 1 Episode 81

Are MMM listeners desirous to hear from the builder of a multi-billion-dollar investment complex, or from a guy who effuses about Dr. Dre’s iconic debut album?  If so, our conversation with Jack Glover checks both boxes….and then some.   

 

Jack is Founder and Managing Partner of Incline Equity Partners, a PE firm with over $6.5 billion in committed capital.   Today, Incline is investing out of three vehicles maintaining the firm’s historic focus on differentiated distribution and service firms of varying size.  Discussion begins with Jack’s Western Pennsylvania roots  – Pittsburgh childhood, college at Duquesne, first job at Westinghouse Credit.  The theme of Midwestern values returns as a core aspect of Incline’s evolution and culture.  Jack’s enthusiasm for Dr. Dre’s seminal first album “The Chronic” is one highlight of many diversions into music, gambling and other esoteric subjects.
