The ideal partner
M-One Capital, founded in 1986, is a private-investment firm focused on being a value-added partner for management teams, founders and families. We provide equity capital, guidance and strategic resources to the people and companies in which we invest — our partners. Formerly doing business as McCarthy Capital, the firm rebranded to M-One Capital in 2025.
