Mr. Taslitz is the Chairman and Co-Founder of Sterling Partners. Mr. Taslitz is closely involved in the strategy and execution of Sterling’s investment platform, which invests and manages across strategies and asset classes, including start-ups, early stage investments, middle market PE buyouts, public equity, quantitative investment strategies, and real estate.

Sterling was born from the entrepreneurial spirit of Mr. Taslitz and his co-founders, and the firm has maintained a focus on partnership and scrappiness.
