Tanner Lecture with David Whorton on Underappreciated Evergreen Companies

Join David Whorton, founder of The Tugboat Institute for an Obert C. Tanner Lecture on Underappreciated Evergreen Companies: Capitalism at Its Best. In David’s lecture, he will share his learning journey, briefly discuss the current state of venture capital and private equity and their playbooks, and outline the opportunities, challenges, and lessons learned in creating and scaling these Evergreen companies. David believes that Evergreen companies represent capitalism at its best, and the highest calling for the companies of any aspiring entrepreneur who wants to make a dent in the universe. Through his talk, he will strive to bring a fresh perspective, inspiration, guidance, and hope to the alumni and students at UC Berkeley.
