corporate venturing

For many emerging and growth companies, scaling depends on the close interaction and collaboration with corporates. 

Likewise, corporates can derive many benefits from an active engagement with emerging and growth companies. 

Corporate venturing can take many different forms, from relatively straightforward short-term commercial collaborations to highly complex long-term equity-based relations.

Cresco has developed a unique corporate partnering framework to guide our clients in the design, structuring and negotiation of corporate partnering transactions.
