Michael Leffell is the
Managing Member of Portage Partners, Chairman of Canoe
Intelligence, and Founder and Chairman of 10 East, an investment
platform for sophisticated investors to access private markets by
co-investing alongside Michael. Michael was former Deputy Executive
Managing Member of Davidson Kempner, where he spent twenty-one
years before retiring in 2010. He formed a family office shortly
thereafter and developed Portage, Canoe, and 10 East out of his
investing activities.
Our conversation covers Michael’s professional investment career,
personal investing following his retirement, and businesses created
from those activities.
And a little disclaimer is in order: I’ve known Michael for about a
decade, and after becoming impressed by the quality of 10 East’s
offerings, its research process, and high-quality investment team,
I became an advisor to the organization and an investor in multiple
offerings.
