In a conversational, “fireside chat” format, Alex interacts with some of the world’s premier investors and business icons to share market insights rarely found elsewhere. While many investors echo common sentiments, our “insights” include concepts that we believe are counterintuitive, widely misunderstood, or underappreciated. With over two decades of experience managing billions of dollars in client assets, Alex offers unique access to some of the industry’s top thinkers. He has authored two investment books and contributed to leading journals, and he consistently ranks among the elite financial advisors by Forbes and Barron’s. As an independent and innovative voice, Alex offers a fresh take on investing. We invite you to tune in and would love to hear your feedback. https://insightfulinvestor.org/","last_synced_at":"2026-06-10T00:17:50.992557+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/insightful-investor-6700249"},"episode":{"title":"#113 - Young Lee & Asheesh Gupta: Audax AI Value Creation","slug":"113-young-lee-asheesh-gupta-audax-ai-value-creation","published_at":"2026-03-10T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/insightful-investor-6700249/113-young-lee-asheesh-gupta-audax-ai-value-creation","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/insightful-investor-6700249","url":"https://insightful-investor.captivate.fm","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/8a041d9c-cc0d-4ffc-8a0a-952435784bb7.mp3","summary":"Young is Co‑President at Audax Private Equity, and Asheesh is a Managing Director overseeing the firm’s Strategic Resources Group and Portfolio Support team at Audax, a leading middle market PE platform managing $19.5 billion (as of year‑end 2025).
