Competitive Differentiation

Altimus Partners stands out from the market by building on the depth of our domain expertise (engineering, financing, management consulting), our flexible capital structure (Family Office private capital, ecosystem of investors and partners), our engagement model (co-investment, sweat for equity), and our investment strategy focused on active investing, hedging on sector rather than market, and balancing thematic investments with uncorrelated assets. 

Because we are Family Office-owned and Partner-led, our investment decisions are not influenced by Venture Capital or Private Equity culture, our due diligence is not biased by Allocator preferences, our investments are based on conviction and flexible capital structure.

We believe the unprecedented speed of innovation creates generational opportunities to allocate to disruptive innovation with the potential to dislocate business and markets. Venture Capital and Private Equity have been slow to adapt, with 70% of capital allocated in point solutions, 65% of investments driven by Fear Of Missing Out, and much venture capital still locked up in pre-IPO stages unable to meet the start-up funding cycle. This creates a unique opportunity for Family Office to allocate premium liquidity to technology thematic investments which require investor patience and long term capital commitment.

We help Family Offices capitalize on this opportunity, by creating deal flow and facilitating access to interesting start-ups. We add domain expertise to understand the technology stack and consultative skills to strengthen due diligence, leveraging investor and allocator experience, and a large ecosystem of capital, investors, and partners.
