Richard Cristina

I have been a strategic advisor and mentor for start-ups for the past 10 years.

I have been a part of a founding team that launched a consumer goods company in Australia with a successful exit. This saw me move to the UK to pursue helping that same company expand into new markets. I have since launched a similar business in the Emirates, for which I currently sit on the board, steering the company strategically.

I completed my postgraduate studies in Business at Ballarat University, Australia. I also run the London Chapter for the Founder Institute, the world's largest start up accelerator. Here I have graduated over 80 companies of whom many have started to raise funds and grow. I also formally advise several tech start-ups in the UK.
