The Melbourne Entrepreneurs Meetup Group

Melbourne based group of entrepreneurs ranging from aspiring to highly experienced. Inclusive culture (no egos or pretensions) and proven track record of value adding in expanding contacts and learning.

-- My name is Peter Christo, and I'm the organiser of the Melbourne Entrepreneurs Meetup Group.

I am involved in a few ventures, and have had a number of business in the past, some successful some not so. I also write the Melbourne Coffee Review (www.melbournecoffee review.com) which is not a commercial venture, but is a lot of fun.

I also lecture at RMIT on Entrepreneurship and am a mentor at VUT's Rural Entrepreneur program. I'm kind of part academic with some tangible runs on the board business wise.

I have a range of ventures which I am happy to share details on, but my core business is Christo Partners (www.christopartners .com) and its sister business Pitch Club (www.pitchclub.biz).

Each meet-up now, we have up to 2 presenters tell their tale of woe, idea or strategy for eg: growth and the group then, over good coffee give them their views.

It has some great results.
