PEWIN Launches Boston Chapter

Nov 9 2018 News

Boston, November 9, 2018 – The Private Equity Women Investment Network (PEWIN), a membership organization for senior women leaders in private equity dedicated to advancing diversity and forming business relationships among women investors in the private equity industry, held the inaugural event for its new Boston Chapter on November 1.

The more than 40 guests included senior women investors from across New England, representing a good mix of both General Partners across private equity strategies and Limited Partners from endowments, pensions, fund of funds, consultant gatekeepers, wealth managers and other organizations. PEWIN hosts numerous member events each year globally, which focus on networking and education for its members.  PEWIN also actively supports women-oriented causes and organizations, particularly in the field of finance.  The PEWIN Boston Chapter co-chairs are Geraldine Alias, Portfolio Manager at Choate Investment Advisors, and Sarah Samuels, Managing Director at Wellesley College.
