It's really trying to get under the hood of the university and understand what they need.

Because the better we know them as our client and ultimately as our partner or anchor tenant in a project or groundless or whatever that relationship ends up being,

The better we know them and what they're actually trying to accomplish, the better we can structure that deal.

And the better opportunity we have to generate alpha and create great returns for our investors.

You know, when we work with the universities and these other large anchor institutions, we're again taking that same approach like we take with our investors and build the relationship, the trust and the credibility.

We want to be really clear on that.

what the risks are of the potential deal, what the rewards are of the potential deal, how those are going to be allocated.

And we try to look at it from a perspective of if we can build the deal together, we can we can de-risk the deal sort of at the global level and then have a smaller amount of risk that we then need to allocate amongst amongst the parties.

So, every one of these deals has complexity to it, a little bit bespoke, goes back to our creativity and curiosity value.

But it's really about trying to align the capital that we can bring, the expertise we can bring with the goals of our anchor institution partner.

And then, you know, put it in a situation where as they go through their governance process, you know, and through whatever the leadership governance is, whatever their board of trustees are.

they see that they're going to be better off working with us than anyone else.

I'm always confident about that.

But even on their own, you know, a lot of these universities have plenty of financial resources.

It's not that they need our capital.

Some universities are a little more capital constrained, but it's really about showing them that, you know, the combination of capital and expertise, we call it sort of a capital plus solution framework, is going to leave them in a better off place.

Perfect.

Yeah, it's a good question.

And there's a lot more art than science in that.

You know, the science of it, you know, that you're talking about is matching, you know, what the pension and insurance companies would call matching adjustment capital.
