Gender Portfolio Reporting
Equality is one of the core thematic pillars we support at Alberts. We recognise the opportunity to help level the playing field by investing our capital to create and support change; by conscious consideration of the organisations that we choose to partner with and the way we operate as a business. As part of this, Alberts has committed to publish our gender statistics bi-annually across our portfolio companies in order to increase transparency and support investment in female identifying founders.

We open doors
We’ve built a reputation for creating pioneering businesses in Australia for more than 130 years. If we can’t open the door for you, we know someone who can.
How we live our values
We invest early, from pre-seed (we’re happy to be your first investor) to series A, and when we do, we partner for the long term. Early-stage investing isn’t just about ticking boxes, but the pioneers we are interested in backing should demonstrate the following:
- A genuine commitment to partnership and collaboration
- A business model driven by positive impact, where business success directly drives impact and vice versa
- Impeccable integrity and values
- A vision that gets us excited
- Demonstrable subject knowledge
- Potential for real scale
- Early market traction
- A commitment to growing in Australia
If you tick these boxes, let’s talk. Contact us to take the next step.
