Alan Patricof

Co-Founder and Chairperson, Primetime Partners, Greycroft

About

Alan Patricof has one of the longest continuous track records in venture and private equity globally, having founded three successive firms over 60+ years—Apax Partners in the 1960s/70s, Greycroft in the mid-2000s, and Primetime Partners in his late 80s. At around 90+ years old, he maintains an unusually active investing schedule and positions himself as a longevity investor through Primetime Partners, explicitly focusing on products and services for people over 60 while using his own lifestyle as proof that older adults represent a dynamic, overlooked market segment.
