PE/VC investors

Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) investors are the catalysts of innovation and growth in the business world. PE firms primarily target established companies, seeking to optimize operations and unlock value through strategic investments and management expertise. They focus on long-term growth and profitability, often preparing businesses for a future sale or IPO. VC investors, by contrast, are the adventurers of finance, injecting capital into high-potential startups and early-stage companies. They embrace risk for the possibility of outsized returns, often becoming invaluable advisors. Both investor types not only bring capital but also strategic guidance, industry connections, and market insights, propelling their portfolio companies towards success.

Dundee Venture Capital Dundee Venture Capital
Dundee VC formally began in 2010. The root of the idea was formed when Mark Hasebroock, Dundee VC’s founding and managing partner, raised money for his two e-commerce companies, giftcertificates.com and Hayneedle, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, respectively. Despite building two fast-growing tech startups in Omaha, the capital to grow them came from New York City and Sand Hill Road. That left Mark wondering why. Mark saw the problem and created his own solution: Dundee Venture Capital, to fund entrepreneurs like him building tech startups in cities like Omaha. Since, Mark has built a team to continue the missionof investing in early-stage tech founders across the Midwest. With 45 investments and $50M across two funds, the focus remains the same – partnering early with talented tech entrepreneurs in underserved capital markets and working closely with them to build a better future.
