What is Petros Partners?

Petros Partners is a venture capital firm specializing in equity investments, based in Austin, Texas, with a foundation date of 2010.

With a focus on specific sectors such as technology, healthcare, and energy, Petros Partners deploys their expertise in structured finance and private investments, boasting over $2 billion in transaction experience. They cater to companies operating in software, including web marketplaces and SaaS, business solutions, FinTech and financial services, hardware and manufacturing, energy, retail and e-commerce, as well as A.I. and big data.

The fund employs a strategic approach to investing that involves utilizing public-private incentives to credit enhance fixed-income investment products, which in turn supports the capitalization of their investment platforms. One such innovative financing solution offered by Petros is their national lending platform for C-PACE (Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy), granting commercial property owners the ability to finance energy improvements through long-term, full-financed loans.

Additionally, the firm manages state-specific investment funds aimed at nurturing growth within lower middle market businesses and provides tax credit and other advisory services to deliver alternative capital or structured solutions to their clients. Petros emphasizes core values of integrity, experience, and relationship-building in their operations, seeking to engage with partners, clients, and team members who share similar principles for mutually beneficial and lasting partnerships.
