Corporate Venture Capital’s Role in Disruptive Innovation Initiatives

By Evangelos Simoudis on October 13, 2014

A large corporation recently requested my advice on how to set up and structure their venture fund, which they wanted to base in Silicon Valley. This corporation had initially set up a venture fund in the late ‘90s to invest in Internet startups. By 2002 they closed down the fund after determining that its portfolio […]

The e20 Experts Corner: Shrinking to Expand
