After media watchdog George Colli has called attention to alleged dealings between a large Saudi firm and Oak HC/FT, we’re making inquiries on when the deal was made, and for how much.
Connecticut Democrats, via Hearst Media CT and the CT Mirror, have been quick to point out business connections between the Saudis and former gubernatorial candidate Bob Stefanowski. Now, the tables may be turning: Annie Lamont’s Venture investment company, Oak HC/FT (Health Care/Fin Tech) made a deal with Public Investment Fund (PIF), Sanabil Investments.
Hearst criticizes Stefanowski here and Ned Lamont comments here. Many other articles and news stories surfaced about Stefanowski’s connections.
In this captured screenshot, Annie Lamont’s firm Oak HC/FT is listed under Sanabil’s Venture Investments. If Annie Lamont’s firm is working with the Saudi’s on investments — failed projects or not — the public transparency is needed.
