Mid Europa Partners is the successor entity to EMP Europe, which was formed in 1999 by EMP Global. EMP Europe was launched in 1999, and in early 2005 the EMP Europe team bought out EMP Global's stake to form Mid Europa. The firm invests in Central and Eastern Europe, and has since raised two successor vehicles. As the firm grew, founding member Bill Morrow moved from the investment team to become the firm's first COO. Jennifer Harris spoke with Morrow about the development of the role.
