About Endurance Companies
Founded in 2009 by freshman roommates and a rugby teammate at Dartmouth, Endurance's mission is to empower good people to build meaningful companies. Notably, we are entrepreneurs, not investors. We currently actively manage four businesses: Funding Circle, Turnstyle Cycle, Endurance Fitness, and Endurance Properties. Additionally, our partners work at a Board-level with three businesses: NewLiving, WorkingPoint, and ClinMet. Finally, we have a small portfolio of passive investments. The Endurance team is proud to employ at least a dozen Dartmouth alumni in addition to many interns over the years, making the bold claim of having the best pong setup in its office west of the Connecticut River.
