His board roles have included regional operating companies in industrial development, self-storage, and digital infrastructure.

Real Estate Focus

Perlman's real estate work has centered on Asia-Pacific platforms and company-building. Warburg Pincus says he co-founded and sponsored some of the region's largest real estate companies, but its public biography does not assign him individual transaction totals. He studied business administration at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. The current CEO role spans the whole private-equity firm, so his responsibilities are broader than real estate alone.
