Starwood Capital Group, a private equity firm focused on real estate and energy, has hired Christopher Keber as director of global capital raising and investor relations.
Keber will lead a group responsible for the investor outreach efforts of the firm, including capital raising, investor relations and marketing.
Prior to joining Starwood, Keber worked in the New York office of the real estate private fund group at Credit Suisse, a private placement group focused on fundraising for private equity vehicles dedicated to real estate.
Previously, he was employed at Trinity Partners/Trinity Capital Advisors, a real estate services and investment firm where, as a managing director, he led the corporate services group, advising owners, users and developers of institutional real estate.
"Maintaining strong relationships with our capital partners is critical to any firm’s success, so we are thrilled to have Chris join us in this important role," says Barry Sternlicht (pictured), chairman and chief executive of Starwood Capital Group. "Given his strong real estate background and focus on institutional investors worldwide, he is an ideal choice to enhance our dialogue with the global investor community."
