Equity Mates Investing Podcast

On today's episode, we've invited members of the Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF) at The University of Western Australia back on the show to pitch for the community watchlist. Last year we heard from their Chief Investment Officer, Ben, who pitched Citadel on the podcast. SMIF operates a high conviction fund undertaking positions in ASX listed companies following the end to end analysis, due diligence and valuation of the company, all completed by UWA's top performing students. For this pitch, Bryce and Alec talk to Forress Salekian (CIO UWA SMIF) and Phillip Nguyen (Investment Director UWA SMIF), who've prepared a pitch deck on Technology One (ASX: TNE). Together they delve into their investment thesis, and share the extensive research they've done on the company.
