Mitt Romney and the private equity/consulting practices of Bain Capital at medical equipment company, Dade Behring
11/12/2011
Bain Capital originanted the the merging of management consulting with private equity, for consulting firms to take equity ownership in companies seeking a turnaround. The practice of loading the company with debt, and taking out capital for the investors through a sequence of policy actions, even if this led the company to bankruptcy, became the hallmark of this kind of investing. In most cases this led to large layoffs, was adverse to building human talent in the company, as it was designed solely around generating large and early payoffs for investors. Goldman Sachs was the private equity partner for Bain Capital in the Dade company investment.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
