CORPORATE VENTURE PARTNERSHIPS
Develop new business with the right partners.
New business opportunities often emerge when established companies work with founders and specialist providers. KØDE helps companies find suitable partners and turn a shared interest into a defined commercial project. We clarify the need, bring the right people together and structure the collaboration around an accountable team, a clear business rationale and a practical way to test the opportunity.
When we work together
- You want to develop a new offering and need complementary entrepreneurial or technical capabilities.
- You are looking for emerging companies that can address a specific need within your business.
- You want to develop an existing relationship into a pilot, customer agreement or joint venture.
What we work on
- Define the brief
We work with the relevant business team and budget owner to clarify the problem, required capabilities and criteria for assessing a potential collaboration.
- Select suitable partners
We identify relevant companies, founders and specialists. We consider their contribution, ability to work together and availability for the proposed project.
- Structure the collaboration
We define the scope of work, allocate responsibilities and establish the objectives, resources and decisions required to move forward.
- Support practical testing
We support the agreed market test or pilot phase. The findings provide a basis for continuing, adjusting or ending the collaboration.
What you receive
You receive a reasoned selection of potential partners, a defined commercial project and a practical work plan with responsibilities and decision points. Following the test phase, the participants review the evidence, unresolved questions and next steps.
How we begin
We begin with a specific project and an accountable client lead. The relationship can develop into an ongoing partnership where there is a recurring need to build new business with external teams. Scope, fees and decision-making arrangements are agreed before work begins.
