Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Core Capital Partners?
Managing Directors Will Dunbar and Mark Levine, both co-founders of the firm in 1999, jointly lead investment decisions. They are supported by CFO Randy Klueger, who manages financial operations and limited-partner communications but is not listed as an investment partner.
How does Core Capital source proprietary deal flow?
Core enforces a strict geographic mandate, investing almost exclusively in early-stage companies located in the Mid-Atlantic corridor between Atlanta and New York. This concentrated focus, combined with the partners' decades of experience in the region, positions the firm as a default lead investor for enterprise-software startups in that area.
Does Core Capital participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Core exclusively makes direct investments in early-stage operating companies. Its public materials describe a strategy of leading or co-leading seed and Series A rounds; there is no mention of a fund-of-funds program or LP commitments to external managers.
