Our Strategy

We invest our own capital, and that of select co-investment partners, through highly skilled managers.  We recognize that there is a role for both qualitative and quantitative analysis and that investment selection and portfolio construction can be as much of an art as it is a science.  We therefore use both objective tools and subjective human judgment in our decision making process.  These disciplines are applied in the following categories:

Private Equity - We combine equity investments and active Board roles in emerging growth companies with significant potential for long-term appreciation.

Asset Management - We partner with skilled managers to create high, risk-adjusted returns in publicly traded securities.

Real Estate - We opportunistically invest in a broad range of real estate assets, from raw land to income producing properties.

Leadership Development - We are committed to helping the next generation of business leaders impact their communities.

 Philanthropic Activities - We seek to invest in our community through the intentional giving of time, energy and resources.

 

Marketplace One Values

Leadership People Ethics Teams Giving
Leadership means experienced individuals functioning as servant-leaders who exhibit exemplary character, humility and excellence. Individuals are respected and appreciated. Our concern for team members is expressed in part through our commitment to the whole person both personally and professionally. Business conduct is characterized by adherence to the highest standards of integrity. These principles always take precedence over profit. Teamwork is essential to success. In addition, teams provide mutual encouragement, shared expertise, and a context for personal growth and accountability. A portion of profits are set aside for intentional charitable investments. We give both time and resources in support of these investments.
