Theme:

Corporations are under extra pressure to innovate faster with tighter budgets. An opportunity or resource today may be gone in 30 days. Those who decide to innovate with startups are also struggling to beat more competitors hunting the same top-tier entrepreneurs: the number of firms collaborating with startups (so-called corporate venturing) has increased fourfold. Meanwhile, the boundaries of who does what in corporate venturing are getting blurry, and deal-flow is getting democratized.

Corporate giants such as Alibaba, Henkel or Amazon are already innovating with startups by leveraging the capabilities of corporate venturing partners such as private accelerators, venture capital firms, research centers, and more.
