Affinity Networks

The Young Professionals Network is a grassroots effort focused on developing a social network and creating a well-rounded professional experience

“YPN fosters community among our junior talent by organizing events across three key pillars: social, professional development, and community impact. We launch everything from high impact learning sessions, summer socials, and workout classes to cross-group lunches and fireside chats. YPN was the ultimate way for me to experience GA’s culture and build meaningful and lasting friendships that extend far beyond our day-to-day roles.”

Embolden and support GAs multicultural community of talent

“As a Spectrum Committee member, I am committed to building a supportive community where diverse perspectives thrive. Leading the Spectrum Book Club allows me to facilitate meaningful conversations and foster deeper understanding among peers. It’s a privilege to contribute to creating a culture of belonging at General Atlantic.”

– Yashvi Patel, Legal & Compliance

Encourage the recruitment, retention and development of LGBTQ+ talent

“Pride@GA cultivates a sense of belonging where our LGBTQIA+ colleagues feel supported and connected. It reflects GA’s commitment to allyship and inclusion by championing visibility and celebrating authenticity in the workplace. We support causes that advance the LGBTQIA+ community beyond our walls, amplifying our collective impact. Ultimately, it’s about fostering advocacy, amplifying voices, and ensuring our culture is reflected in our broader communities.”

– Blake Tiemeyer, Growth Acceleration

Deliver curated and informative content related to issues impacting women across all levels and groups

“The women’s network at GA has been such an important source of support for me, especially as a working mom. It’s given me a space to connect with others who understand the challenges of balancing career and family, and to learn from their experiences. Having this community has reminded me that I don’t have to navigate it all alone — we can all find ways to grow and thrive together.”
