OUR VALUES

We Build What Corporate Innovation Promises but Rarely Delivers

We’re not consultants. We’re builders.

Venture Builder was created to close the gap between corporate ambition and real execution. We design and operate venture clienting programs that help corporations deploy innovation faster—and help ventures scale with traction, not just funding.

Execution-Focused

We don’t do slide decks. We build programs that deliver operational results.

De-Risked by Design

Pilot-first engagement. No equity needed to unlock value.

Tailored to Strategy

Every accelerator aligns to your business goals—not a generic trend.

Collaborative by Nature

We work hand-in-hand with corporate teams and innovation companies to move fast, learn faster, and scale what works.

First Deployments

We partnered with NOV to launch Supernova—an accelerator built for operational impact in upstream oil & gas.

2023–Now

Expansion & Execution

New corporate partners. New programs. Dozens of ventures accelerated. And a playbook that proves this model works.
