Admiral Capital Group

Admiral Capital Group was co-founded by NBA Hall of Famer and philanthropist David Robinson and Daniel Bassichis, formerly of Goldman Sachs Real Estate.  Admiral's main focus is value-add real estate investments through institutionally backed private equity funds formed in partnership with USAA Real Estate Company (over $12b of asset under management).  These funds target office, hotel, multifamily and special situation investments in major domestic markets. Since inception, Admiral has invested in over $1.2 billion of real estate assets.

Additionally, Admiral has invested alongside investment firms (including KKR, Kohlberg & Co, and Hearst Corporation) in growth equity and leveraged buyouts of companies where Admiral can add value with business development and community initiatives. To date, the investments have been in the food services, sporting goods retail, and electronic ticketing sectors.

Across both platforms, Admiral seeks to maximize the financial and social returns of each investment and expand on the community work of co-founder Robinson. Robinson’s primary philanthropic passion has been the development and expansion of the Carver Academy, now part of IDEA public schools. Admiral has launched a number of programs to improve the communities in which it invests in, including The Admiral Center in partnership with Living Cities (to support athletes and other celebrities with their philanthropic endeavors) and Admiral Hospitality Scholars (focused on educating underserved high school students on the hospitality industry with hands on workshops through a year-long externship).
