Ryan Morris: 28-Year-Old Activist Investor

Ryan Morris launched Meson Capital Partners in Feb 2009 with $50K. He invested 40% of the fund in 3 companies and was up 753% gross for the year. In 2010, Whitney Tilson and Zeke Ashton of Centaur Capital Partners became seed investors, but Morris struggled and evolved into an activist investor knowing that he couldn't count on 2009-type market opportunities, and needed a more durable advantage.

Morris currently has 33 investors and $15M AUM.

Activist situations he has been involved in include HearUSA, InfuSystem, Pinnacle Airlines, and Lucas Energy.
