Davis Enterprises Holdings Pty Ltd
Early-stage capital for Australia’s boldest founders.
About
Davis Enterprises Holdings invests in early-stage Australian startups, providing ambitious founders with private capital, strategic support, and financial expertise. We are sector agnostic, backing bold, growth-focused companies that are pushing the boundaries of human ingenuity.
Our portfolio spans software, robotics, media, artificial intelligence, biotech, cybersecurity, aerospace, and ecommerce. We offer aligned capital and leave founders free to lead without external pressure or bureaucracy.
Our commitment is personal, our conviction is real, and our ambition matches our founders.
Investment Philosophy
We look for founders building category-defining companies at the earliest stages. We write cheques at pre-seed and seed, often as one of the first believers at the table.
We don’t chase trends or follow the herd. We back people with clarity of thought, obsessive conviction, and the grit to see it through. The sectors don’t matter as much as the founders — though we’re naturally drawn to deep tech, frontier science, and companies solving hard problems.
As independent investors deploying private capital, every investment is a reflection of our belief in the team. There are no committee decisions, no LP obligations, and no institutional theatre. Just aligned incentives and genuine partnership.
Reputation
Peter was an investor in our pre-seed extension and from the get-go he understood how to be a good Angel. He asked the right questions, offered great introductions and was quick in executing the transaction. Recommend Peter on any great founders cap table.
Peter is a real one, the type of angel we need more of in Australia. A believer, willing to do a deal and not waste your time. I have actively watched Peter move from networker to investor over the last 24 months and build a reputation that is authentic, open and willing to give a yes or a no.
Working with Peter was an absolute pleasure — his decisiveness, insight and overall knack for asking the right questions makes him the perfect investor to have on your cap table. Peter is also very well connected across a number of industries and is an asset to any company he chooses to invest in.
Peter has been a great angel investor to work with from day one. He was clear about his mandate and willingness to get to a decision quickly. Early on, Peter highlighted his focus on investing in great teams with an exciting vision. We were able to build trust quickly because Peter was responsive and delivered reliably on his offers.
Pete ticks all of the boxes for the type of people you want to work with when company building; he’s a fast mover, does what he says he’s going to do, and is a great bloke. I’m glad to have Pete on our journey.
I’ve completed 20 funding rounds since leaving school — so I know the importance of a good cap table. Peter is exactly what we need more of in Australia — informed, approachable, grounded, long term. Speed is of the essence when closing a round and Peter is FAST.
Peter is a very professional and friendly angel investor and provides an invaluable level of advice and guidance. He has a wealth of knowledge in investing and startups. If you are a founder, I highly recommend approaching Peter for advice and investment!
You have good taste, Doctor Strange... Glad to see the dedication to the long term playbook.
We’re always looking to meet ambitious Australian founders at the earliest stages.
