Joel has extensive experience advising world-class private equity and venture capital firms and managers. Born in France and having started his career in financial services on both sides of the Atlantic, Joel stepped into alternative investments in 1989 when he established Majorn Corp., as a joint venture partner of The Carlyle Group and
France-based Euris-Rallye group. He was instrumental in Carlyle’s early growth, working closely with the firm’s founders; indeed, he was an investment advisory committee member with Carlyle I, II, and III. He then embarked on a 25-year multi-billion dollar deployment program of seed, fund, and direct corporate investments covering hundreds of emerging asset managers in the US, Europe, and globally. Joel holds post-graduate degrees from ESCP Europe, City University London, University of Dusseldorf, and MIT Sloan School of Management. He sits on several MIT Sloan boards.
