Sure, here’s a more raw and stream-of-consciousness version of the article:

Hey there, welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast. You know, I always find it wild how these private market folks have stories from way before the term “wealth channel” was even a thing. Today, I got to sit down with Peter Aliprantis. He’s been around the block—joined EQT in October 2024. Feels like he’s been running even before the starter pistol went off, trying to get the wealth team vibes flowing in the Americas. Growing the EQT swag in the US, you know?
If you’d rather listen, go hit up Apple Podcasts or Transistor.
Peter’s been in the trenches for over 25 years. Before EQT, he had a 12-year stint at TPG Angelo Gordon as a big shot Managing Director. His thing? New biz development and intermediary distribution. Quite the mouthful, right?
So, we went everywhere in our chat—like seriously, from vintage wealth channel days to how products are evolving in private markets. A few gems:
– Working in “the wealth channel” back when it wasn’t even termed that.
– Crafting brands like a masterpiece in new places.
– Sometimes the loud one isn’t the smartest. Peter gets that.
– EQT’s ThinQ platform—it’s like education on steroids helping brand trust.
– Evergreen structures? Institutions are loving the innovation.
We even touched on how model portfolios are morphing. I can picture all the tired fund managers now…
Anyway—wait, what was I saying? Oh right, Peter’s wisdom blew me away, and it’s all in the show. Go check out clips on:
