Corporate Venture Studio as a Service (CVS-aaS) is a full venture studio, delivered as a service rather than built on your payroll. We originate, validate, and build new ventures alongside your institution, on a six-week decision cycle with evidence at every gate. Direction stays yours. Advance, adjust, or stop, every cycle. Ownership is set per venture, in writing, before the first cycle: your institution holds the controlling stake by default, and the studio earns a minority stake for the build.
Who this is for: banks, insurers, and large financial institutions whose internal innovation labs stall. The talent is there. The structure inside a regulated institution works against speed. If you've watched a promising idea die in committee, this is built for you.
Every venture runs a six-week cycle with five stop conditions at each gate; trip one (willingness-to-pay under the bar, for instance) and the venture stops. You set the direction. We carry the execution.
We originate and validate against real buyers, with willingness-to-pay tested before a line of production code. Evidence clears the gate, or the idea stops here.
Concept to working product or pilot on a six-week cycle. Your customer data stays in your tenant; the venture reads defined fields through a permissioned API.
Five stop conditions at each gate. Strategic direction stays yours; operational execution is ours. Every cycle ends in one of the three.
The same cycle runs on our own portfolio, with our own capital on the line. See what we build
Customer data never leaves your tenant, so control sits where your regulator expects it to.
The venture reads only the defined fields it needs, through an access layer you govern.
Validation and build run on self-hosted compute, inside a perimeter you define.
The governance line is written down, not assumed: you decide what; we decide how.
Two weeks to pressure-test one opportunity against real buyers, with a straight read on whether it clears the first gate. No long-form commitment to begin.
One working session to pick the opportunity. Two weeks to test it. Six-week cycles from there.
