Mark IV Capital is a privately held, family-owned investment platform that has operated since 1974 with a uniquely long-term investment thesis focused on value creation across commercial real estate and private equity. On the private equity side, the firm supports entrepreneurs and companies that are transforming critical sectors of the economy in a smart and scalable manner, investing in early-stage companies — typically at Series A or B — that possess unique intellectual property and measurably increase productivity for business or government customers. The firm concentrates on deep technologies including robotics, artificial intelligence, and materials science, and has formed an informal co-investment alliance with CerraCap Ventures to identify and back innovative companies operating within or adjacent to Mark IV's real estate footprint.
