OUR STORY

"By Endurance, We Conquer"

-Sir Ernest Shackleton

The Company is named for the British explorer, Sir Ernest Shackleton’s ship, Endurance. Shackleton led the 1914-1917 Trans-Antarctic Expedition.  The story of Endurance is the story of persistence and determination.  Its success was the safe return of all its 28 crew  through the perilous 1,000+ mile open ocean journey across ice-packed, extreme all-weather conditions.

 

It is in this spirit, dedication to fiduciary duty and the tenacity to manage investment risks through volatile capital markets, that the Company began operating, and which it continues to seek to embody today.

Over the last three decades, David Readerman has identified, financed and invested in growth equities across each of the leading technology - driven opportunity sets. Endurance Capital Partners applies a research-driven investment thesis toward technology growth investing. Endurance Capital Partners' objective is to achieve positive risk-adjusted returns in all market conditions.
