Alan Waxman

Sixth Street Growth

Concrete Rose, the early-stage venture investing platform that deploys capital to underrepresented founders of color, recently changed the firm’s name to Westbound Equity Partners and quadrupled the size of its first vintage fund. The venture industry is not surprised. Apples don’t fall far from the tree. The firm, founded by the uber impressive Sean Mendy, was incubated inside the highly successful investment firm, Sixth Street Growth, under the direct guidance of Alan Waxman. It was Waxman and others at Sixth Street Growth that helped form the business plan and contributed their social and financial capital to the firm’s launch. Waxman is the Co-Founding Partner and Chief Executive Officer of Sixth Street Growth which he co-founded and has led to become a leading and highly-respected multi-solution investment platform. The firm manages over $75 billion and has a team of over 500 professionals around the world. He previously served as a Partner at Goldman Sachs and held the position of Chief Investment Officer for its largest proprietary investing business.
