PE Pros Go 8 for 40

Investment Dealers’ Digest has released its third-annual compendium of top dealmakers, attorneys and advisors under 40. It’s a good introduction to a bunch of folks who if you don’t know yet, you will know soon.

Perhaps as a sign of the times, however, less than 25% are private equity pros. The elite eight are:

• Steve Chang, co-founding partner of Clearlake Capital
• Ajit Nedungad, managing director with TA Associates
• Melissa Ma, managing director with Asia Alternatives Management
• Josh Wolf-Powers, co-founding partner of Blue Wolf Capital
• Darren Redmayne, managing director with Lincoln International
• Oliver Sarkozy, managing director with The Carlyle Group
• David Schamis, managing director with  J.C. Flowers & Co.
• Todd Sisitsky, partner with TPG Capital.
