The key to success is to tailor the concept of effective, business-driven startup collaboration to fit the corporate environment. This book is an invaluable resource for all corporate venturing leaders and practitioners, as it shares the best practices from various industry experts and key learnings of their journeys - and thus, provides inspiration on how to design and develop your Venture Clienting activities."
