VENTURE STUDIO SETUP

We enable organizations to move from individual venturing initiatives into a systematic portfolio approach. By establishing a venture studio—internal, external or in a  hybrid model—we provide a dedicated governance system and operational framework. This ensures ventures gain the flexibility, speed, and independence needed to scale into sustainable businesses.

Furthermore, we provide ventures access to our partner network, funding partners and potential co-founders.

What

Venture Studio in action 

Many organizations with corporate venturing experience face challenges: 

  • Achieving agility and speed due to internal complexity (corporate mindset, governance, processes)
  • Transitioning from validated ideas to full-scale businesses
  • Scaling multiple ventures simultaneously, hindered by limited structure, resources, and expertise
Venture Studio Framework

We deliver a structured methodology:

  1. Strategic alignment: Define goals, constraints, and success metrics
  2. Legal & contractual setup: Establish the necessary legal framework 
  3. Entity incorporation: Create legal  entities and funding structures
  4. Operating OS roll-out: Deploy core support services and Operating OS
  5. Operational Go-live: Launch ventures with clear governance and processes
Venture Studio Framework
  • Contractual framework: Comprehensive legal documentation (Master Framework, Trust Agreements, RoP, etc.)
  • Governance model: Decision-making rules and forums across all layers
  • Shared services setup: Fully operationalized support systems (Finance, HR, Legal, Infrastructure)
  • Operating OS: Venture-building methodology and process playbook incl. stage-gate-framework
