What we offer

We act as your embedded innovation partner - from whiteboard to execution. Our studio integrates with your team to identify new venture opportunities, validate market demand and rapidly test MVPs.
We build spinouts and internal ventures with corporates as co-founders. You bring the industry expertise; we bring the startup velocity. Shared upside. Shared ownership. Shared execution.
We help commercialise internal IP or research assets via startup pathways, licensing models, or joint ventures. We've done this with leading research agencies, universities and deep tech portfolios.
We offer end-to-end support to set up to CVCs and institutions. This year we set up a Corporate Venture Company, which invests Micro Venture to Seed, within AI, Communications, Robotics, Automation, Health related technologyand within broader, Machine Learning applications.
