Benjamin Carson, Jr., Co-Founder and Partner of FVLCRUM Funds, adds, “While fundraising is never easy, the right placement agent can accelerate the process and act as a true partner in the effort. We were fortunate to find TCG early in the FVLCRUM Funds journey and appreciate their thoughtful approach to understanding our strategy, opening the right doors, and collaborating closely with our team to streamline our capital raise. Now that we have achieved the final close on the Fund, we look forward to continuing to prove that impact and alpha can be truly aligned to deliver commercially viable societal change at scale.”
