In early October, Chief Executive Officer and TGC Founder Eric Garrett was featured as the distinguished speaker at the 2024 Indiana State University Student Managed Investment Fund Consortium. An opportunity to pass his vast knowledge and experience down to younger generations, Eric was honored to do so at ISU, his alma mater.
Over the course of the two-day event, over 300 participants from 50 universities gathered in Chicago, Illinois, for a forum among member institutions to learn, network, and share best practices for investment management involving business education. Eric was joined by executives from CMT Association, Charles Schwab, Ariel Investments, LGIM America, CFA Institute, Jones Lang Lasalle, Kingsview Partners, and Cboe Global Markets.
“The professionalism and caliber of students involved was truly impressive. It was inspiring to see such talent and ambition at this stage of their careers, and I’m confident that many of them will become future business leaders,” shared Eric. “Thank you to President Mike Godard, Dean Terry Daugherty, and Dr. Tarek Zaher for inviting The Garrett Companies to participate.”
