Built to Back Leaders. Built for What’s Next.
At Dynamic Core Capital, we back experienced executives to build enduring companies — using a tested, disciplined investment approach designed to unlock transformative growth.

Honoring Our Legacy. Accelerating the Future.
For over 40 years, our predecessor firm, Dubin Clark, was known for partnering with founder-led businesses in the lower middle market. Now, as Dynamic Core Capital, we carry that legacy forward — with the same values that brought us to this new chapter.
Our rebrand reflects a natural inflection point: additional leadership, a new strategic focus, and a bold new vision. Same values. Dynamic energy.
Our Valued Partnership Model
Our edge isn’t just what we invest in — it’s who we invest in.
Our valued partnership model is designed to accelerate value creation
by aligning results-driven operators with our disciplined investment approach.
Deep Operational Leadership
Executives with firsthand experience running and scaling businesses — not just advising them. These are operators who’ve been in the trenches.
Integration & Transformation Experience
Leaders who have guided companies through acquisitions, integrations, and operational improvements.
Growth Acceleration Mindset
Our partners excel at identifying new markets, optimizing pricing, and building scalable sales engines — and then turning those insights into action.
Relationship-Driven Access
Executives with established relationships across industries, customers, and partner ecosystems that open doors and accelerate commercial traction.
Aligned Incentives
Our executives don’t just run the play — they co-own the outcome. With substantial equity participation, they win when the business wins.
4 Pillars of Our Value Creation Strategy
Strategic M&A Acceleration
We target 1-3 high-impact add-on acquisitions per platform to increase scale and expand reach.
Disciplined Organic Growth Engine
We aim to strengthen revenue retention and expand EBITDA margins through pricing, churn reduction, and greenfield expansion.
Market & Customer Expansion Levers
We strive to broaden the customer base by expanding geography and extending product/service offerings to unlock new demand.
Operational & Financial Optimization
We seek to enhance visibility through quarterly KPI tracking, forecasting, and performance management to drive efficiency and accountability.
