Buerk Dale Victor  - now Montlake Capital (www.montlakecapital.com) -  invests in growth opportunities across diversified stages and sectors where we have unique knowledge, skills or expertise to help build enterprise value.  We primarily target companies headquartered in the Northwest, but will consider opportunities throughout the broader Western U.S.  We focus on business or consumer products and services, health and wellness, retail, growth technology, and financial services industries.

The real work often begins only after an investment is made.  Our operational expertise allows us to serve as proactive board members and advisors for our portfolio companies, as we assist our portfolio executives in defining business strategies and execution plans, providing networking opportunities and sales lead generation, building effective boards of directors, and developing appropriate exit strategies.  Through distinct active involvement, Montlake builds long-term value for both our portfolio companies and our investors.
