Capital Mindset™ Team

A Team of Experienced Investors and Operators Supporting Entrepreneurs - Helping Land Capital on THEIR Terms


In over three decades as an institutional investor, Marc has operated alongside, evaluated, advised, and invested in companies at all stages. He has performed diligence on thousands of investments - and has collaborated with teams to place hundreds of millions of dollars of investment capital.

He has seen everything - watching companies both succeed and fail at the strategic finance process. He KNOWS what investors want, and what they don’t want.

The Capital Mindset™ framework was born of Marc's frustration of watching otherwise viable companies fail to secure financing - simply because entrepreneurs did not understand the needs of investors, were targeting the wrong type of investor, or were unable to create a successful capital process.

Marc has over three decades of experience in Growth-Stage Investing and Capital Markets - with leadership roles in investment management, consulting, and strategic financing - focusing on venture capital, private equity, industry strategic investors, and family offices.

In addition, he served as Managing Director of the Colorado office of Endeavor, the world’s largest scale-stage entrepreneur advisory network and venture capital fund – supporting over 2,600 scale-stage founders, operating in over 45 countries, with over $500M in AUM.
