"Fast, cheap and weird" experiments is what Elliott Parker recommends for corporations wanting to make sure they stay resilient and able to survive unexpected challenges. There's an interesting contradiction in big companies. They become big because they are well run, but being highly efficient also makes them vulnerable. Everyone wants to tap into #startup-stye agility — but how? An innovation unit is usually a pointless exercise. #CVC investment in startups is better — but has challenges. The best option might be venture building, argues Parker. Oh, and, tapping into the Japanese concept of "sanpo yoshi". Thierry Heles got the lowdown on these from Parker. Here is the full piece: https://lnkd.in/dHM_6_eY

Investors — including #corporate #investors — are hungry to work with universities. But are universities themselves making that unnecessarily awkward? US universities are often cited as a model in terms of taking fairly minimal equity in their #spinouts, making these more investable — but still having mechanisms to benefit when one of these companies becomes big. This is a quick look at how the system works:
The US is seen as one of the most successful ecosystems for VC investing, and is often seen as an example of how to set terms for commercialising university spinouts. As part of Global University Venturing series on how universities approach equity stakes in #spinouts, we take a look at how US universities use low equity stakes to attract VC investment while royalties and non-dilutive shares ensure #techtransfer offices get a payout from the companies they help to commercialise: https://lnkd.in/e8D6fM3C
