Our guest for today's podcast is Tem Tumurbat, Co-founder and Managing Partner of Nomadic Venture Partners (NVP), where he focuses on fund strategy, fundraising, portfolio construction, valuation, and financial analysis.

Prior to co-founding NVP, Tem was an investment professional at Resource Capital Funds (RCF), a mining focused private equity investment firm, managing early to late stage investments. He de-risked companies, commercialized their businesses and successfully completed M&As that delivered hundreds of millions of dollars to investors.

Prior to RCF, Tem worked for Newmont Mining Corporation as a mining engineer and then project engineer. Tem also co-founded MNG Summit, a non-profit organization supporting Mongolian students and early career professionals.

Tem started his professional career as an entrepreneur where he started and operated a transportation company in college to help pay for college tuition and support extended family.

I found Tem's story to be fascinating. Joining me on the podcast and my guest co-host is Brian O'Neil, former CIO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and long time supporter of AAAIM.

Without further ado, here is our conversation with Tem Tumurbat.
