One statistic that remains the same is that 25% of these ventures have received investment and support from the financing world. 75% of these businesses are seeking financing support from top investors as well as commercial collaboration opportunities with corporations.    Through this podcast series, I would like to demystify the world of corporate venturing, including venture capital investing and corporate venture capital investing for the masses, and give intrapreneurs, inspiring investors, and young ventures, the strategies, tools, and techniques to grow and scale their business by understanding how corporations and corporate investors think… as well as how unicorns are built.    So, listen in, share and comment as you see fit.
