Venture Clienting thrives on exchange - and on becoming better together.

That was exactly what the roundtable was about: #sharing experiences, discussing challenges, and finding new ways to keep Corporate Venture Clienting #effective.

For us, this open dialogue is key – because #innovation only works when #knowledge is shared.

Thank you to everyone who attended, and to Christian Hüttenhein and ÖBB for hosting.

💡 The Go-to-market strategy determines success or failure – what does this mean for family businesses?

Many medium-sized companies are familiar with the challenge: products fail not because of the idea, but because of the market launch – due to internal resistance, a lack of scaling strategies, or unsuitable models.

Our CEO Nils Wagner will be discussing this topic on September 25th at #MyWay2025 in #Berlin – together with Manuel Hörl (V-Labs), Johanna Heise (Heise Ventures), and Gabriel von Mitschke-Collande (G+D).

👉 The #panel will focus on practical approaches to how family businesses can successfully bring i#nnovations to market – drawing on #experience from startup collaborations, M&A, and digital transformation.

Who among you will be attending #MyWay the Event from The Pioneer?
