Scaling-Up Corporate Startups
Turn innovation concepts into business impact
7 out of 8 corporate startups do not generate business impact. The problem is not in generating ideas or in validating them – Typically these are managed by corporate Innovation Centers, Accelerators, Incubators, Digital Labs, etc.
The problem is in the subsequent phase – Scaling-Up.
To succeed in Scaling-Up, a solid methodology and a robust collaboration model between the corporate startup and the core organization is needed. If these are not in place, all Ideation and Validation is just a costly hobby.
innovation-3 has co-created the methodological framework and the collaboration model, together with leading firms.
The book contains both. It also contains case studies from some of our clients on how they are professionalizing Scaling-Up.

This book provides a framework for taking promising new concepts to scale using the best ideas from venture capital and the lean start-up world and makes these work in a corporate context. We are using this framework right now in BP.
David Eyton, Group Head of Technology at BP
For years, corporations have used innovation frameworks that were designed for start-ups and that missed many of the idiosyncrasies of corporate environments. This book fills this gap brilliantly and will enable many corporate innovators to substantially increase their impact in the main business.
