This document discusses corporate venturing and provides a framework for how large companies can collaborate with startups. It addresses:
1. The challenges of keeping up with rapidly changing customer, market, and technology environments that put pressure on existing business models.
2. A proposed solution of a "hybrid model" using both "inside-out innovation" by upgrading the company and "outside-in innovation" through collaborating with startups.
3. A venturing framework including focus areas, configuration options, guidelines for communication and cultivation, and establishing the right mindset, means, and mandate for corporate venturing.
