Random Ramblings

Greetings from Aspen, where Fortune Brainstorm Tech is getting ready for its final morning. Just a couple very quick notes, before I head over to moderate a breakfast discussion on smart-gun technology.

• Today from Aspen: In addition to our breakfast sessions, we'll have interviews with Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins, PayPal CEO Dan Schulman, Legendary Entertainment's Thomas Tull and Mary Parent and a special tribute to Bill Campbell with Shellye Archambeau (MetricStream CEO), John Doerr (Kleiner Perkins chairman), Emil Michael (Uber chief biz offiver) and Brad Smith (Intuit CEO). And, yes, we'll be sure to ask Legendary not only about the Theranos film it's producing, but also a report this morning that it's in talks for a Pokemon movie... The livestream begins at 11am ET, and you can view it by going here.

• Today's big deal is that Silver Lake has sold an undisclosed minority stake in its management company to Dyal Capital Partners, a unit of Neuberger Berman. Three notes:

1. My understanding is that this is new equity coming in, as opposed to existing Silver Lake owners cashing out.

2. You might recall that Silver Lake previously sold a 9.9% stake in its management company to CalPERS in 2008 for $275 million, before quietly buying the position back in 2013 for an undisclosed amount.

3. Dyal recently raised $2.5 billion for an evergreen fund to make these sorts of investments, and previously announced a similar sort of deal with Vista Equity (which regularly plays in the tech space alongside Silver Lake).

• Hyperloopy: A number of you wrote in yesterday to ask my thoughts on the co-founder (and former CTO) of Hyperloop Technologies suing the company and two of its (already controversial) VCs ― Shervin Pishevar and Joe Lonsdale ― for such things as defamation, breach of contract and wrongful termination. Particularly given that Pishevar's Sherpa Capital recently raised $480 million for new funds and word is that Joe Lonsdale has rounded up around $420 million for his own new fund (the first since Formation 8 broke up).

The reality, however, is that I haven't yet been able to give it enough thought nor do enough research (except to learn that a countersuit is likely to be filed soon). Blame Brainstorm. In the meantime, however, my colleague Jennifer Reingold has a fantastic tick-tock of the situation, which you should read here.
