The key characteristics of a corporate venture

- The opportunity to tell a better ESG story, built on data and digital
What it means to build a corporate venture
Corporate venture building is a continuous process that can bridge silos across the organization and drive meaningful impact to the P&L. Taking a venture-backed mindset and thinking holistically across the anatomy of the digital business can accelerate the organic and inorganic growth journeys.
Venture building is both an art and a science — inventing sticky solutions beyond the first principles is the ‘art’; translating that value into breakthrough P&L impact is the ‘science.’
