Start with a free, structured evaluation. If the opportunity is real, work with Peter Christo and a senior adviser network to build the commercialisation path — and, when you're ready, reach capital. We tell you where you actually stand, not what you want to hear.
For 20 years this screening has been a conversation with Peter. Now AI handles the groundwork — intake, framing, sourced research, first drafts — so senior advisers spend their time where it counts: the judgment calls, the hard issues, the introductions. You get the rigour of a senior partner without waiting months for a slot.
For founders. Take the free opportunity screen, request a Commercialisation and Growth Report, or engage for specific advice.
Sign in to the founders portal →For founders and advisers under engagement. Encrypted upload of decks, financials, IP and sensitive material — available once you're engaged, under a written confidentiality undertaking. Nothing is shared with a capital partner without your specific mandate. See how we handle confidentiality.
Sign in to the vault →Panel advisers sign in through the same portal. Adviser accounts are set up by Christo Partners and carry adviser-level access.
Christo Partners works through three progressive phases. Most founders will not cross every gate — that is the design.
A structured version of Peter's opportunity screen. Mobile-verified founders receive one free opportunity evaluation. Further evaluations and tools are fee-based.
A full Commercialisation Report followed by ongoing advisory. Lead-advised by Peter Christo with a select adviser network. AI handles breadth — research, drafting, sourcing. Humans handle judgment.
After a final investment-readiness screen and a mandate agreement with the founder, opportunities are syndicated to the CP capital network — venture funds, family offices and grant programmes across our relationship network.
Hardware, advanced materials, robotics, space, quantum, sensing and energy — technically complex ventures others find hard to assess.
Sovereign and dual-use capability. Our team holds appropriate Australian Government security clearances for sensitive engagements.
Edtech and the commercialisation of university and research-sector intellectual property.
Founders pay for a clear, honest read. Advisers are paid for work delivered. Capital partners get deal flow that's already been screened. Everyone in the chain is aligned around the same thing: telling the truth about the opportunity early, so good ventures move faster.
