On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Gregor Gimmy, founder of 27pilots, a company dedicated to helping companies build and scale Venture Client units and allows them to benefit from startup innovations faster at large scale and significantly lower cost and risk than traditional corporate venturing methods. On this episode we will explore how this Venture Client model is shaping corporate innovation, the strategic benefits it offers, and how companies can adopt this game-changing approach to stay ahead in a competitive world. KEY TAKEAWAYS When I joined BMW in 2012 I was surprised to find out the small number of startups that it was leveraging to improve its technology landscape across its value chain. I told them that CVCs were investing in 2.8 startups per year. This is not nearly the number needed to solve all the technology challenges that we have, we need more like 100. My initial idea was not to invent a new model but to improve the current one. I was told that if they invested in 50 startups per year they would have around 250 startups in 5 years whose equity state we would have to manage, which is impossible. I concluded that VC isn't scalable, but it didn't solve the problem BMW had either, which was accessing, adopting, and transferring cutting edge technology fast because it's about investment not technology transfer. These are two totally different business processes. We needed to look for a new approach: becoming a Venture Client. Accelerators and CVCs are indirect models – like using a third party's battery technology in the cars you produce – you first make the investment and then do the adoption of the technology. The different in the Venture Client model is cutting out the middleman. If you want to be good at something you need a dedicated unit. If you do it part time it will only work partly. If you make it a department you can have more time you can dedicate to it, you can have a dedicated budget, you have a more solid KPI structure. BEST MOMENTS ‘More than getting into the world of Venture Client Modelling, I invented the world.' ‘A Venture Client is a company that adopts startup technologies through procurement and M&A.' ‘A corporate cannot compete against a good startup like Palantir or Oracle when they were startups.' ‘The Venture Client model will displace Corporate Venture Capital to become the standard of corporate venturing.' ABOUT THE GUEST As captain of the 27pilots endeavour, and the visionary behind the Venture Client model, Gregor GImmy focuses on advancing Venture Client knowledge and growing the global community through 27pilots' corporate clients and academic allies.

The global church is exploding with growth and miracles, but what's their secret? We sit down with Ryan Skoog, founder of Venture & Co, to uncover how radical prayer, not just leadership principles, is fueling a worldwide revival.Ryan's ministry works in the “three UNs”—UNsafe, UNreached, and UNresourced parts of the world, where partners face persecution and miracles are commonplace. He shares eye-opening insights from his book, Lead With Prayer, revealing how the fastest-growing churches on earth are powered by a deep, authentic prayer life.Join us as we dive into:✅The shocking truth about prayer among Western leaders: Why more experience and education often lead to less prayer.✅“Friendship First”: How dynamic prayer lives are built on simply “wasting time” with Jesus, not just a laundry list of requests.✅Crafting a Day with God: Practical rhythms and habits to integrate prayer throughout your day, from morning psalms to blessing strangers.✅From Spiritual Warfare to Miracles: Ryan shares a raw, personal story of how daily communion transformed his family's battle with demonic nightmares and saved his business during COVID.✅Prayer Forges Courage: Discover how spending time in God's presence equips leaders to make tough decisions with humble confidence (hear the wild story of Ryan's dad!).✅Communal Prayer & Maximum Yield: How individual prayer ignites corporate movements, and how discerning God's will through prayer can lead to unprecedented fruitfulness in ministry and life.This conversation will challenge your assumptions about what prayer can be and inspire you to engage with God in a more profound, transformational way. Take the Bible seriously, but learn not to take yourself too seriously, as we explore the radical middle of Word + Spirit.0:00 Introduction: Ryan Skoog on Prayer2:57 Inspiration for the Book on Prayer5:57 Western Church & Dependence on the Spirit9:47 Prayer Vs.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks about the launch of a new series of podcasts exploring the Venture Client Model which is turning corporate innovation on its head. Instead of merely investing in startups and crossing fingers, big companies buy from startups to drive innovation – today, not years from now. Imagine a world where a major fortune 500, an automotive manufacturer, an insurance giant or a bank can plug in a cutting-edge startup solution as easily as adding a new app to your phone. The questions Sabine tackles include: What if your company's next breakthrough isn't built in-house, but bought from a startup in an early pilot? And what if being a startup's customer is more powerful than being its investor? KEY TAKEAWAYS At its core, a venture client is a corporation that purchases and uses a startup's solution to gain strategic benefit. No equity stakes, no controlling shares – just buying the solution early, when the startup is still a venture. The company becomes the startup's client (often the first or an early client), giving the startup revenue and feedback, while the corporate gets to solve a problem with a cutting-edge product. Insurance is traditionally conservative – heavy on compliance, cautious with new tech – slow, one might say. But that's exactly why venture clienting is so powerful here: it creates a safe sandbox for insurers to experiment with startups. – Zurich has no corporate VC arm at the group level, so everything they do with startups ends up as a venture client relationship or partnership. That means all the effort goes into tangible pilots and deployments, not minority stakes in startups that might not align with the business. It's a bold approach, but clearly paying off. Imagine car insurance: traditionally, if you buy a policy in many countries, an agent might physically inspect your car, or if you have an accident, an adjuster needs to assess damage. CamCom replaces a lot of that with a DIY solution – the customer can just take a video of the car, and the AI will spot scratches, dents, cracked windshields, you name it, and even estimate repair costs. That means faster claims, smoother policy underwriting, and less hassle. BEST MOMENTS ‘The Venture Client Model flips the usual script: instead of investing in ten startups and hoping one succeeds, you pay a startup to solve a problem and start benefiting immediately.' ‘This isn't just theory. It's happening now.' ‘The model turns the corporation into what I like to call an innovation magnet – attracting the best startups because the word is out: “This company loves to buy new tech”.' ‘By the end of this series, you'll know the ins and outs of the model, from big-picture strategy down to on-the-ground tips, like why having a one-page startup contract can save you months of headaches, or why “impossible” should be banished from your vocabulary.'

Fundraising for Private Equity and Venture funds has slowed as interest rate have climbed. Stalled exits and reduced distributions have followed. There are 50% fewer venture companies today than just a few years ago. As a result, multiples for acquisition targets have decreased, thereby presenting an opportune time for active funds with capital to acquire companies at attractive prices. Companies in secondary and tertiary markets, in particular, can be very attractive. Mark Flickinger is General Partner and COO of BIP Capital. BIP invests in mid-market early stage companies in the Southeast and Midwest.

S4:E175 First, the Notable and Quotable this week in Venture and then an interview with Karl Rabago, an independent Electric Utility and Grid expert. We'll be talking about energy demand vs supply for data centers and how it can affect the entrepreneurial success of data center developers. Both Hyperscalers and individual entrepreneurs are in a frenzy to develop data centers and both groups rely on developers to solve the problems and to take on the risks of development. It's created a gold rush of sorts with all the market distortions one might expect in a race for riches. The reward for the Hyperscalers' contract developers is a big payout at completion or even better for owner developers, long term recurring revenue with very attractive margins. It's become the Wild West of energy. Next week we will be talking about how AI is accelerating robotics into the venture economy to take on manual work.
