Raise your hand if you’ve been sweating for the last 2 weeks. ✋

Air conditioners throughout the country were working overtime last month as much of the US sweltered through a heatwave. 

While the temperatures are receding in some places, huge swaths of the country are still expected to see above-average heat through at least the end of this week.

The heatwave highlights how important heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are in our daily lives, especially amid a changing global climate.

For PE investors, the HVAC industry is a massive opportunity. There will always be demand for HVAC services and products, and because of how the industry is fragmented, it’s chock-full of potential acquisition targets.

In this week’s PE Playbook, we dig into the trends investors must know if they’re thinking about making moves in the residential, commercial, and industrial HVAC markets.

PE and IB interns:

The summer is flying by, and you’ve (hopefully) learned a ton already. But have you been consciously working on honing your communication skills?

Clear communication is one of the strongest weapons you can have in your arsenal in this — or any — industry. 

Sending a cold email? You have to be able to articulate why the exec should read your message at all, what you bring to the table, and what you’re asking for in a clear, concise way.

Pitching a target to your team? You need to make them understand why you think it’s a smart move. 

But communication isn’t just about the “why,” it’s also about the “how.” Other people need to understand how you arrived at your idea or hypothesis or conclusion.

That’s why the way you structure your presentation slides and set up your model are honestly more important than the information itself.

As an intern, you’re bound to make mistakes. That’s OK. 

But you’re only going to get the help you need to get better if your team can easily follow what you do, step by step, in a limited amount of time.

Venture capital (VC) plays a huge part in helping startups reach their highest growth potential.

VC investors are constantly looking for groundbreaking new solutions that aim to make our daily lives easier — or at least more interesting.

But how does it all work? 

How do startups attract VC investors? And how do VC investors differ from other kinds of investors?

We answer all of your VC-related questions in our new blog post here: https://hubs.ly/Q02D59GR0
