  Tenet Equity

  Real estate

  Tenet Equity is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that provides long-term, flexible capital to middle-market companies across the United States through net lease and sale-leaseback solutions. His background also includes roles at Colliers International and Trefethen Capital Partners, providing him with experience in distressed debt restructuring and investment banking. Tenet's business model centers on sale-leaseback financing, allowing companies to unlock the value of their owned real estate while maintaining operational control of their mission-critical facilities. This approach helps clients improve capital structure and asset efficiency, providing liquidity for growth initiatives, corporate recapitalizations, business acquisitions, and shareholder buyouts. The company operates by acquiring properties and leasing them back to the former owners under long-term net leases, where the tenant is responsible for expenses such as property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. This structure generates predictable, long-term rental income for Tenet. The firm serves a diverse client base across more than 26 industries, including manufacturing, logistics, retail, healthcare, and restaurants. A key milestone for Tenet occurred in September 2026, when Cerberus Capital Management sold the company to CBRE Investment Management for $1.6 billion. At the time of the acquisition, Tenet's portfolio consisted of over 200 properties, totaling approximately 12 million square feet across 39 states.

  Thalo

  Legal

  The company's inception was spurred by Dr. Hermalyn's realization during the pandemic that global emissions hadn't dropped as significantly as expected, prompting him to leverage his extensive background in advanced sensing to tackle climate issues. His career includes roles as a NASA scientist, leading the space imaging systems group at Skybox Imaging (acquired by Google), heading Waymo's camera program, and managing GM/Cruise's autonomous vehicle hardware programs. The company targets the built environment, which is a substantial source of greenhouse gas emissions, often accounting for over 70% of emissions in major cities like New York. Thalo Labs provides solutions for building owners and operators to measure, mitigate, and capture their carbon footprint in real-time. The core of their offering is the HVAC Copilot, a hardware-first, AI-driven platform that functions as a "check engine light" for a building's heating and cooling systems. This system uses easy-to-install sensors to monitor equipment, detect issues such as methane leaks proactively, and provide clear diagnostics to speed up repairs and reduce downtime. By instrumenting HVAC equipment, Thalo enables clients to identify and fix inefficiencies that lead to significant emissions and financial waste. Thalo's business model serves clients such as major REITs and Fortune 500 companies by providing the tools to reduce costs, cut carbon, and manage emissions effectively. The platform provides a shared tool for both building operators and their service providers, enhancing system performance and lowering operational costs. In addition to its emission reduction services, Thalo Labs is developing direct air capture (DAC) technologies designed to be integrated into buildings, turning them from net emitters into net-negative carbon sinks. The company has received backing from investors including Gigascale Capital, Refactor Capital, Very Serious Ventures, and For ClimateTech, and has participated in several accelerator programs.

  The Bastion Standard Company

  Wellness & beauty

  The Bastion Standard Company operates in the personal care market, providing a dedicated ecosystem of skincare and grooming products developed exclusively for men of color. The company was established by a founder with a background in technology and engineering who, from his own experiences as a Naval Cadet and in high-stakes corporate environments, identified a gap in the market for premium skincare tailored to melanin-rich skin. His personal struggles with sensitive skin, razor burn, and irritation led him to create a solution when he found none existed. The company's business model is primarily direct-to-consumer, utilizing its e-commerce website for sales, including a subscription service. It also pursues growth through partnership opportunities and wholesale inquiries. Bastion Standard's product development is rooted in a scientific and data-driven methodology. A key strategic step was the acquisition of a research and development company with over two decades of data on how various ingredients impact melanin-rich skin. This research underpins a proprietary AI model used to formulate precision products targeting common issues faced by men of color, such as hyperpigmentation and post-shave irritation. To ensure quality control and supply chain integrity, the company has built its own national manufacturing infrastructure. Beyond product efficacy, the brand's mission is to reinforce identity and recalibrate perceptions of men of color through its meticulously crafted product line.

  Travel

  Interval International operates as a membership-based vacation exchange network for timeshare owners, a market it has helped pioneer since its founding in 1976. It has since become a subsidiary of Marriott Vacations Worldwide, following an acquisition in 2018 for approximately $4.7 billion.

Interval International offers several membership tiers, including a standard membership, Interval Gold, and Interval Platinum, each providing progressively more benefits. The core service allows members to deposit their week or points and book a comparable vacation elsewhere. Beyond the primary exchange service, members have access to a range of other travel products. "Getaways" are discounted resort stays that can be booked without depositing a timeshare week, while "ShortStay Exchange" allows for trips of less than a week. Additional benefits can include discounts on cruises, hotels, car rentals, tours, and activities, facilitated through partnerships and an online travel marketplace.
