The basic recipe of a startup studio
(also known as venture builder, startup factory) is:
• You take a core team & entrepreneurs in residence;
• Add shared infrastructure & in-house funding;
• Generate ideas internally, focusing on a specific area;
• You build multiple startups in parallel, with shared resources;
• If an idea doesn’t work, you reassign the team to a new one;
• What works you spin it off and get follow on funding;
• Grow. Exit. Repeat.

Compared to the old startup building recipe,
startup studios make early-stage building easier:
• You have a team of experienced company builders;
• The studio provides a safety net, reducing the risk of failure;
• Because the team sticks together even if an idea fails, their
experience grows, they become even better builders;
• A studio is perfect for quick, low-cost experimentation;
• You build trusted relationship with investors, so getting follow-on
investments for your portfolio companies becomes easier.
