01 / The proposition
We shape compelling propositions, assemble founding teams and strategic partners, and organise capital around credible ventures—bringing together the right idea, people, capital, and story to create momentum and unlock long-term value.
We look at opportunity through a people-first lens, informed by media, culture, and creativity. Commercial discipline matters, but while numbers largely describe what has already happened, understanding why people buy, what earns attention and trust, and what they may want next can help reveal what happens next.

New propositions, formats, and experiences shaped by changing audience behaviour—and by the evolving relationship between talent, culture, and commerce.
Media, publishing, and audience opportunities with the potential to build trust, relevance, participation, and long-term value.
Technology that enables new behaviours, improves experiences, or creates stronger and more scalable commercial models.
Businesses, places, and experiences responding to how people want to live, gather, travel, and spend their time.
Places, assets, and propositions where stronger positioning, experience, and partnership can unlock greater potential.
These are not rigid sector boundaries. They are connected by human behaviour, culture, experience, and the changing ways people live, work, create, consume, and invest.
We look for original concepts and unrealised potential within existing businesses, assets, audiences, relationships, intellectual property, and market shifts.

04 / Brill Factory + Brill TV
Brill Factory turns promising concepts into organised opportunities. It shapes the proposition, develops brands and intellectual property, assembles founding capability, and creates a credible path to market.
Brill TV makes the people, ambition, and possibility around those opportunities visible.

Our dealroom for investment and capital.
RGX Capital provides a focused identity for evaluating, structuring, and participating in opportunities, and for developing relationships with aligned investors and capital partners.
We begin with the quality of the opportunity: the proposition, the people capable of leading it, the role of capital, and the story that can create understanding and momentum.
06 / The foundation
Read Global began in Australia in 2007 with Chris Read’s first business. It has since been shaped by an interwoven entrepreneurial and corporate career—businesses built, companies led, opportunities created, successes achieved, failures experienced, and lessons carried forward.
Today, that accumulated experience informs the organisation, but Read Global’s identity is defined by what it exists to build next.

07 / The Read Insider
Founder thinking / publishingIdeas in motion.
The Read Insider is where Chris Read shares observations about people and markets, emerging theses, lessons from building, and conversations that can open new possibilities.
The focus is not the founder as the subject. It is the thinking—made useful, open to challenge, and capable of becoming opportunity.
How artists, creators, performers, public figures, experts, and other talent-led builders can build enduring enterprises and retain greater participation in the value they create.
↗08 / Work with us
We want to meet founders, operators, investors, strategic partners, businesses and individuals with unrealised value, and talent with the ambition to build beyond their existing reach.
