Biography

Mr. Mark Hasebroock is the Founder and serves as Managing Partner of Dundee Venture Capital. Mr. Mark Hasebroock served as an Advisor at Mercury Fund. Mr. Mark Hasebroock was a Co-Founder of Hayneedle. He also co-founded and served as a Board Advisor at DonorPath. He served as Board Member at Amify. He got his entrepreneurial start selling coloured moccasins to pay for a spring break trip while at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (he paid for the trip, then had to issue refunds upon his return when his customers quickly realized that the moccasin dye stained their feet). After a stint as an investment banker - and one as a popcorn distributor - Mark co-founded his first company, Giftcertificates.com, in 1997. Next, he co-founded Hayneedle, which sold to Jet.com in 2016 before Jet went on to become part of Walmart. In 2010, he formed Dundee VC to solve the problem he faced as an entrepreneur building two tech startups in Omaha: the lack of early-stage capital available throughout the Midwest. Since then, he's grown Dundee through three funds with over $50 million under management and nearly fifty investments, building a team around the Dundee mission - to invest in and partner with the best technology entrepreneurs in the Midwest at the earliest stages. He is the first Nebraska-based member of the Kauffman Fellows Class 22 and sits on the Omaha Children's Hospital Board of Directors.
