hello panda.damien petty
most people call me panda.
i’m a dad to two young boys and i work at the intersection of innovation and capital.
my career began in investment banking and funds management, in australia and london. in 2011, i started lending to companies undertaking research and development.
i love working with early-stage businesses trying to bring something new into the world. building that lending product in australia, then taking it to the uk and canada, showed me how the right funding can help those businesses grow.
i want to keep building where innovation and capital meet, backing the businesses of tomorrow.
currently
i’m building borderless, private credit infrastructure designed to help originators access capital on better terms and operate with less friction.
i’m also building embark, a lending platform helping innovative businesses access capital.
