How can the right intercessor be chosen?<\/p>\n<h3>The challenges<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Since more corporations are collaborating with startups, companies struggle to beat competitors in hunting and seducing the same top-tier entrepreneurs.<\/li>\n<li>An intensification of global market volatility has introduced extra pressure in corporate venturing teams to get better market predictions and new revenue streams ready to run.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>A promising solution<\/h3>\n<p>Companies are increasingly complementing their efforts with corporate venturing enablers\u2014from private accelerators to\u00a0 research centers,\u00a0 embassies or even corporations\u2014to facilitate collaborations with start-ups.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>As a corporate, do I work with start-ups directly or supported by an enabler?<\/em> On average, the most significant aspects evaluated making this first decision are: the start-up\u2019s proximity to the company\u2019s core business (in 26% of the cases), its internal capability to work with entrepreneurs (24%), its access to curated opportunities (17%), the cost of implementation (11%), etc.<\/li>\n<li><em>As a corporate, how do I choose the best enabler?<\/em> Once a company decides to go the enabler route, these are the most frequent aspects that companies evaluate in this second decision: its own capabilities to work with entrepreneurs (in 38% of the cases), whether there is an existing ecosystem of curated stakeholders to enhance the corporate\u2013start-up collaboration (15%), its knowledge of the industry or the scouted technology (12%), and its level of existing personal trust and tailored service (10%), to name a few.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The implications<\/h3>\n<p><em>How does this affect corporates?<\/em> Since corporations are to a greater extent working with start-ups and offering similar benefits to entrepreneurs\u2014teaming up with enablers can improve their value proposition, thereby aggregating value. Moreover, it can reduce its innovation cost by sharing it with others. It can also increase its deal-flow access and ability to identify opportunities. However, enablers are not just consulting firms: the reality is far richer.<\/p>\n<p><em>How does this affect enablers? <\/em>Forget \u201cmuch ado about nothing.\u201d A proven capability is the most frequent aspect considered when choosing between two enablers (in 38% of the cases). One should spend less time packaging enablers\u2019 assets and put more effort toward developing a skilled team with a proven method to serve the corporation.<\/p>\n<p>This study was authored by IESE (Josemaria Siota and M\u00aa Julia Prats), in collaboration with GELLIFY (Diego Fern\u00e1ndez) and ACCIONA (Telmo P\u00e9rez).<\/p>\n<h3>About<\/h3>\n<p>IESE is the graduate business school of the University of Navarra.

the innovation process: reducing costs, de-risking, and improving the value proposition offered to entrepreneurs. Such collaborations can unearth new revenue streams for corporate innovation teams by leveraging existing corporate venturing capabilities such as scouting of start-ups, agile prototyping, among others. Innovation firms should focus less on \u2018packaging\u2019 and more on developing proven processes, which is the most frequent aspect taken into account (in 38% of the analyzed cases) when considering an innovation intermediary.","og_url":"https:\/\/imnovation.acciona.com\/en\/study-reveals-how-corporations-capability-efficiency-entrepreneurs\/","og_site_name":"IMNOVATION#Startups","article_published_time":"2020-07-20T07:40:00+00:00","article_modified_time":"2022-11-16T08:20:16+00:00","og_image":[{"width":768,"height":393,"url":"https:\/\/cdn-imnov.comun-pro.eu-west-1-aws.cloud-acc.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/30111122\/Sin-titulo-aspect-ratio-2000-1024-3-768x393.png","type":"image\/png"}],"twitter_card":"summary_large_image","schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":["Article","Report"],"@id":"https:\/\/imnovation.acciona.com\/en\/study-reveals-how-corporations-capability-efficiency-entrepreneurs\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/imnovation.acciona.com\/en\/study-reveals-how-corporations-capability-efficiency-entrepreneurs\/"},"author":{"name":"ACCIONA","@id":"https:\/\/imnovation.acciona.com\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/761b5d2753baae5dfe766954ae7c811c"},"headline":"New
