Mark Rowan's Career Journey and Apollo's Growth
Mark Rowan reflects on his early career and the foundation of Apollo Global Management, emphasizing that his early doubts about timing and success were not accurate. He likens the initial phases of establishing Apollo during financial recessions to subsequent growth periods, particularly after 2008, when Apollo rapidly expanded its assets under management to over $700 billion.

Rowan underscores that success in such a volatile market requires adaptability and a keen strategic vision.
