Welcome A message from Toby Lewis
It is a great privilege to be in the right place and the right time. If you are reading this, you are arguably lucky in this respect. At Global Corporate Venturing we titled this event “Pushing the frontiers of venture capital – creating a sustainable ecosystem from the Golden Age”, because we believe there is a true opportunity for corporations investing in venture capital to transform venture capital. Since our company was started in in 2010, corporate venturing, the activity, has boomed and is now arguably at a key inflexion point, which we have dubbed the “Golden Age”, due to the strong levels of interest and activity, and we think this provides corporates the potential to transform how venture capital itself operates. The proliferation of corporates investing venture capital appear to be approaching the task with discipline and thoughtfulness. Corporates involved in the start-up world are on the look-out to add value and are moving into highly intriguing areas of strategic relevance for their parent companies. The most successful independent venture capital firms are now themselves looking to move beyond the partnership-based approach to create organisations which have longevity. In this way, we expect them to look to lessons from the corporate venturing industry, which has learned to incorporate the star culture seemingly necessary to succeed in venture capital, with institutions that have more sophisticated goals than one individual. For this reason we have sub-titled our Symposium as attempting to create “a sustainable ecosystem”, because we feel venture capital can become a more stable pursuit, which learns to live with its history of cyclicality. Corporations, with their greater focus on social responsibility than pure financial investors, also attempt to create a more sustainable way of doing business, with a focus on issues such as women in the workplace, the development of accelerators, and ensuring we have a decent environment for our communities and the wider world. The great line-up of speakers who have honored us with their presence, will set out where they think corporate venturing is headed at their organisations and beyond. Given the growing role of corporations within venture capital, this will equally point to where the investment discipline is headed. It has been a true privilege to watch corporate venturing expand during the years our title has been around, and we are hopeful the discipline is entering its golden age, as sophisticated corporations continue to take the lead within venture capital, and are increasingly courted by independent financial investors. Enjoy the conference and keep us posted on all your news.

Tim Lafferty, MD, Global Corporate Venturing (Mawsonia Ltd) 09:00 - 09:30
CVC Global Overview Speaker: James Mawson, Founder, Global Corporate Venturing (Mawsonia Ltd) Founder of Global Corporate Venturing, James Mawson outlines why we think the next wave of corporate venturing units will push the frontiers of venture capital. He will argue corporate venturing is at a key inflexion point, which we have dubbed the “Golden Age” of corporate venturing and should use the opportunity to create a sustainable venture capital ecosystem as venture is now institutionalising away from an esoteric partnership-based industry. Mawson will also provide a summary of the key trends that Global Corporate Venturing and our other titles Global University Venturing and Global Government Venturing have observed.
09:30 - 10:00
Keynote 1: Fireside Chat – Views from a global corporate venturing leader Speaker: Arvind Sodhani, Intel Capital, interviewed by: Toby Lewis, Global Corporate Venturing. Arvind Sodhani, who has led Intel Capital for nine years, will address how to create a permanent corporate venturing institution, as his group has shown the world how corporations can be an unrivalled force in venture capital when they do it right. Intel Capital has invested more than $11bn in the last 20 years making it perhaps the largest venture investor globally. Following an expansion of its sector focus to ten areas last year, the group is maintaining its position as the most active corporate venturing unit, and will doubtless be a force to watch for many years to come.
10:00 - 10:30
Keynote 2: The new model Microsoft Ventures Speaker: Rahul Sood, Microsoft Ventures. Rahul Sood became head of the newly formed Microsoft Ventures last year, and is leading the technology company’s unified programme working with start-ups in eight locations globally. Sood will set out his vision for the new programme, which with its combination of direct investment, Microsoft’s BizSpark programme and accelerator is arguably a new model example of what the future of corporate venturing may look like. Sood will explain why the company has decided to evolve its corporate venturing efforts into its present format, despite the company always having been regarded as a thought-leader in its work with start-ups.

This panel will discuss if the venture and start-up worlds are getting over-heated, with valuations rising higher and higher. The panel explores the impact caused by the rise of accelerators and incubators as well as corporate venture itself becoming such a hot topic globally and if industry-wide standards are needed to counteract the increase in valuations. Chief Innovation Officers and heads of Digital from assorted key influencers in the digital/innovation world will discuss the issues their organisations are dealing with. These individuals and their peers are likely to dictate how the future of corporate venturing becomes embedded in corporates and what they say will be indicative of how corporate venture changes venture capital as an asset class.`The panel will set out how corporate venturing can become a sustainable activity with a large organisation.
Keynote 3: CVCs & Life Sciences Speaker: Jens Eckstein, SR One Jens Eckstein became head of GlaxoSmithKline’s corporate venturing unit SR One in 2011. The unit is fresh from a bumper dealmaking year in 2013, as the most active group in the life sciences sector. Eckstein will discuss if there is a leadership role that corporate venturing is playing in the sector, as the independent venture industry in the sector has contracted amid a weak fundraising environment, despite a marked improvement in the flow of exits in the sector during 2013.

If innovation has an official color, it would undoubtedly be green.
At Waste Management, sustainability is the chief motivator in our transformation from a waste collection and disposal company to one that views and uses waste as a resource. Getting there has led us to some pretty innovative ideas – from design-with-intent approaches to our current partnerships with more than 30 technology companies working to process residual materials from waste streams into renewable energy, renewable fuel and even green chemicals. Innovation takes many forms ‌ many of them green.

Unpanels Global Corporate Venturing is looking to support corporate venturing programmes in all stages of their development. Corven Networks’ Andrew Gaule is overseeing these two discussion sessions discussing how corporate venturing can best push the frontiers of venture capital to make the venture world a sustainable ecosystem.
CV 101 to 301 series Global Corporate Venturing has put together a three part series from CV101 to CV301, to help programmes at all phases of their development cycle and these unpanels will discuss some of the problems that arise.
Unpanel 1: Partnering with VCs
Unpanel 2: Investing in capital intensive areas
Erik Vermeulen, Philips and Janke Dittmer, Gilde
Davorin Kuchan, Capbridge Venture Capital
The effective partnering of corporates and venture capitalists is likely to be the secret to creating a sustainable venture capital industry, despite historic distrust among independent VCs of many corporate venturing programmes.
The deep pockets of corporate venturing, potential to take a long-term view on capital intensive sectors, and ability to tie investments to contracts, is a key differentiator from the independent venture capital industry which has in general pulled back from areas which need heavy levels of investment.

Unpanel 7: Honing your strategic focus
Unpanel 8: CV signals from Silicon Valley
Iain Cooper, Schlumberger
Rob Trice and Michael Rose, Corporate Venture Forum
The integration of corporate venturing into a group’s strategy is arguably fundamental to success. How to do so, is the subject of much debate.
We all know that the sources and financing of corporate innovation are changing rapidly. The majority of Corporate Innovators Huddle activity is in Silicon Valley, so what “weak signals” on corporate venture and innovation is the Huddle seeing in Silicon Valley? What do these signals possibly portend for future trends in corporate venture and innovation? What is their applicability outside Silicon Valley? For CVC practitioners by CVC practitioners
