Become a Venture Client with Stratosfare and integrate startup solutions into your products and processes. As a Venture Client, you purchase startup solutions instead of investing in startups. Solutions are first tested in pilot projects – and then integrated.
To stay competitive, companies must continuously improve and reinvent their products and processes. Startups work on the latest technologies and turn them into products quickly and creatively. Stratosfare helps you identify your key innovation fields – and then connects you with the right startups to run fast and effective pilot projects.
We identify use cases, find matching startups, and support companies throughout their PoC projects.
Dive into international startup ecosystems and tech hotspots – and stay ahead of trends.
Central startup database and software support for efficient Venture Clienting processes.
We support your strategy, processes, and organization of Venture Clienting with our experience.
At Stratosfare, companies collaborate closely in a cross-company Venture Client Unit. Innovation fields are shared, startups jointly evaluated, and experiences in scaling and implementation are exchanged.
Stratosfare was created by companies to centralize recurring tasks like startup scouting. Licenses are purchased jointly, and Venture Clienting becomes significantly more cost-efficient.
As a corporate network, accessing startup ecosystems is easier. Stratosfare has built a global network of ecosystem partners who provide on-the-ground support with contacts and expertise.
Companies support each other at Stratosfare – guided by our expert team. From strategic planning and organizational setup to implementation, we help make every Venture Clienting program a success.
Fraunhofer IEM is a key research partner in Venture Clienting. With over 100 researchers, it supports startup evaluation, innovation field identification, and PoC project execution with scientific rigor.
Unlike traditional venture capital, Venture Clienting focuses on close collaboration between established companies and innovative startups – without equity or IP transfer. Instead, startups receive a concrete assignment to bring their technology or expertise into the company’s products, services, internal processes, or business model. The collaboration begins with a Proof of Concept (PoC) or prototype. This serves as a foundation to assess the potential and define the next steps.
