Description:

Clarke Capital is a Family Office Investment Firm, focused on Alternative Assets, Hedge Funds, Early Stage University-Licensed/Acquired Technologies and Growth Equity. The firm invests in growing companies, normally producing $1-$5 MM of EBITDA with excellent management teams and defensible business strategies through Private Placements, Debt Instruments and Institutional Grade Alternatives. Portfolio companies have an established presence on the Eastern U.S. coast and throughout Europe and Asia. James Clarke is the CEO of Clarke Capital Partners. In 2001, James Clarke founded and led Utah-based CLEARLINK- with over 1,800 full-time employees today--until it was acquired in 2011 by Pamlico Capital (formerly Wachovia) and has since been acquired in 2016 by Sykes (NSDQ:SYKE). Clarke serves as chair or director on the boards of various private and public companies in the U.S. and abroad, including the 2017 upsized IPO of PetIQ (NSDQ:PetQ) which was 12 times oversubscribed and traded up nearly 50% upon its debut to public markets. He has also served as a trustee and board member of several universities as well as regional and global non-profit organizations. Currently, James is a Governor appointed Trustee at Utah Valley University--the state's largest institution of higher learning with over 37,000 full-time students--where he serves as Chairman of the Foundation Board.
