In a strategic move that highlights internal talent and leadership, Soundcore Capital Partners, based in New York, has announced the promotion of Michael Khutorsky to Partner. This decision not only underscores the firm’s focus on nurturing talent but also reflects Khutorsky’s significant contributions to Soundcore's investment strategy and growth since he joined the firm.

A Leader in Investment Strategy

Michael Khutorsky joined Soundcore in 2025 as a Senior Managing Director, where he rapidly emerged as a pivotal figure in the investment team.

Before joining Soundcore, Khutorsky had an extensive career that spanned nearly 20 years in private equity and investment. He was a Managing Director at ORIX Capital Partners, where he focused on industrial and infrastructure services investments. Furthermore, he has held senior roles in several investment firms including TZP Group and Tower Three Partners, accumulating a wealth of knowledge and experience in buyout investments across multiple sectors.

Khutorsky began his career in private equity as a Vice President at Trilantic Capital Partners and has also worked as a restructuring and turnaround advisor at Alvarez & Marsal. His academic qualifications include an M.B.A. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, an M.A. in International Studies from the Lauder Institute, and a B.S. in Finance and International Business from New York University’s Stern School of Business.

Acknowledging a Valuable Asset

Jarrett Turner, the Founder and Managing Partner of Soundcore, expressed his trust in Khutorsky, emphasizing that he has emerged as a reliable dealmaker and a mentor within the firm. "Mike’s promotion to Partner is a well-deserved acknowledgment of his impactful contributions. His investment expertise and leadership are invaluable as we pursue our strategic goals and continue to create value for our investors,” Turner noted.
