My New Venture Needs You

For the last few weeks, I’ve been letting you all know something exciting is coming. Well the wait is over…

Yesterday I launched my startup venture programme, VenturesPlus.

So, what is VenturesPlus and why am I launching it now?

I speak to countless corporate businesses who are actively looking to invest in new technologies but find it increasingly challenging to find promising startups.

At the same time, I speak to thousands of entrepreneurs who find it hard to scale due to lack of finance and resources, and would hugely benefit from a partner who has access to their market and customer base.

You see, I’m launching VenturesPlus to address a problem I know exists in the market.

Before anyone says it, yes I know there are corporate accelerators popping up all over the place - but we’re different.

Traditional accelerators are limited when it comes to accessing top entrepreneurial talent. What we’re doing is bringing the world’s leading entrepreneurs to leading corporate businesses.

Often, these accelerators ask too much from entrepreneurs; VenturesPlus is all about creating mutually beneficial partnerships. That’s why we never ask for equity until we know both parties are happy working together and have agreed investment terms.

Not only that, we have a real track record you can trust: During my role as Chairman of Start Up Loans, I helped start over 28,000 businesses. Through Hendrik's work with global startup community, Get in the Ring, we have established relationships with over 20,000 entrepreneurs in over 100 countries.

That's how VenturesPlus can search and secure the brightest entrepreneurs across the world for their corporate partners.

For change to really happen, you need more than 12 weeks. Partnerships require long term commitment from both sides. That’s why our programme runs all year round - we’re building ventures for the future, not just executing PR campaigns. 

If you want to join us on our mission, please get in touch.

Let’s partner to prosper.
