Each left a successful career in industry to work with entrepreneurs in
building great new companies. That involves money, of course. But even

Empire Capital Partners
Formed in 1996, Empire Capital Partners is a hedge fund focused
on the technology sector. With investments in public and private
markets, Empire seeks opportunities in those companies with high barriers
to entry and best-of-breed solutions. Able to mitigate its risk by shorting,
Empire also seeks opportunities in companies that are losing market share,
suffering from declining margins, or being displaced. This balance forces
Empire to be objective about and critical of technology. Private investments
are allocated to disruptive technologies that offer blue-sky opportunities.
