Many companies that are exploring new ways to drive long term profitability and relevance through corporate venture building do quite well in the early phases of the process, creating ideas, validating them, developing a product/offering. But there is a clear pattern that many struggle when they come to the point where they have ventures that should accelerate their growth, and scale. There are a few common reasons for this, that have to do with mechanisms within the corporation, and how the innovation/venture building process is set up. In this session Sigrid will go through common reasons for why corporate ventures fail to scale, and give some key insights into how the corporation can work to create the right conditions for enabling their ventures to scale successfully.
