CoVentures

Business building with Deloitte—at speed and scale

Build, launch, and grow new businesses—at greater speed and scale—with CoVentures. Whether you’re driving corporate innovation or scaling a startup from scratch, we team with you to de-risk, strengthen R&D, and lay foundations so you can grow with confidence.

Venturing together to go further, faster

As a founder or intrapreneur, going from zero to one means juggling unknowns with little time or room for error. You’re thinking about product, hiring, and courting both customers and investors.


What if you didn’t have to venture alone?


By investing alongside you, we share both risk and reward in a co-innovation model that helps turn visionary ideas into scaled businesses. With Deloitte’s global reach, industry depth, engineering scale, and a startup mindset,
we’re with you to:

  • Accelerate speed to market
  • Drive meaningful growth and results
  • Build your business at every stage

We bring more than co-investment. We bring business-building momentum.

Unlike traditional venture capital or corporate innovation models, CoVentures plugs in early and builds with you. We’ll help validate ideas, build products that do more, find your first customers, and get the right platforms in place to scale fast.

 

 

 

Why CoVenture with Deloitte?

The real value we bring isn’t rooted merely in our experience, platforms, or IP. It’s in our footprint. Every day, tens of thousands of Deloitte professionals are working shoulder to shoulder with hundreds of clients across all major areas of the Global 2000.

  • Looking to launch a new product? We understand the landscape and know the challenges and successes your customers face.

  • Instead of relying only on focus groups, you can quickly tap into the insights of hundreds of Deloitte professionals who have worked directly with these organizations. 

  • We’re a one-stop shop for validating concepts quickly, refining solutions, and giving practical, on-the-ground perspectives about what’s working—and what isn’t—for teams across the global business landscape.

Great ideas win when they reach customers first. We can help unlock that speed through a combination of global reach, alliances, and our go-to-market muscle.

  • Our co-innovation engine spans every major market and houses the leading implementation practices for hyperscalers and emerging players. This gives our prospective co-innovators access to existing field teams, partner marketplaces, and C-suite relationships from day one. 
  • Under the hood, our Demand-and-GTM pods bring integrated product launch strategy, brand and digital marketing, sales training, and channel partner orchestration, all mapped to the venture’s revenue targets.
  • Coupled with our own solution marketplace, this infrastructure lets CoVentures leapfrog typical ramp-up curves: from concept to a scaled book of business.

We align our incentives with yours, not just at a corporate level, but across each team and individual, so that we’re all driving toward the same end goal.

  • Every CoVenture is backed by dedicated, specialized teams. Our founders, product managers, engineers, and sales leaders are aligned to drive outcomes. 
  • From the earliest “play to win” hypothesis to go-to-market execution, we operate as a single, cross-functional pod.

Founders routinely devote 30% to 50% of their precious time to hiring, building, and managing their teams.1 Recruiting and onboarding a single new team member can drag on for months—time you simply can’t afford to lose. Imagine if you could skip the waiting game and have a high-performing team ready to go tomorrow.

Get a jump start by building from, around, or with our existing product portfolio. We have a rich suite of global, enterprise-grade tech platforms and products. We design, build, and scale through our deep and wide engineering capabilities, innovating with industry and domains at the core.

We have flexibility to invest and take returns in ways that maximize the value for both of us. We can bring capital and resources. We don’t have to take equity or be dilutive to your cap table.

Ways we invest:

  • People and time
  • Products, agents, IP, and data 
  • Aligned/parallel spending
  • Capital
  • Non-financial support (for example, preferred-partner status, client-base access)

We begin with discovery sprints to validate the opportunity, prototype, test, and refine solutions; stand up the teams and capabilities to run the business; and activate our sales teams to reach the market faster. 

Whether you have a best-in-class capability you’d like to spin out, a new concept you’re launching from scratch, or a product gaining traction and looking to scale, we build with you every step of the way.
