GCV Connect
Bringing together corporate innovators and investors in regional clusters across the globe
Making strong connections is the foundation of the corporate venture capital landscape and its success, but with the ecosystem stretching across the globe, it can be hard to find the time to sit down and make that happen. Global Corporate Venturing makes that happen. We use our international network to bring together the key players within a region to connect, learn, and succeed, together.
With over 15 GCV Connect events across numerous regions, we’re working to bring a global community closer, expanding your network, and giving you the tools to succeed.
Our biggest GCV Connect event debuted in Germany in 2022 and hosted 120+ senior representatives at its second edition, including representatives from major units from the DACH region such as BMW i Ventures, Porsche Ventures, Bertelsmann Investments, Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank and many more.
In 2024, we launched 3 new GCV Connect events:
GCV Connect: India, in collaboration with TDK Ventures, hosted 200+ representatives from companies such as Infosys, Google, SpecialeInvest, Qualcomm, BASF Venture Capital, and IBM, to highlight the huge corporate investment landscape growing in the region and provide space for new connections to flourish.
GCV Connect: New Nordics, in collaboration with Invest in Estonia and Helsinki Partners, spanned 2 countries and worked with companies such as Maria01, Nokia, and Sunly to provide an exclusive insight into the region’s thriving corporate venture system.
GCV Connect: Korea, in partnership with the KVCA, built on the success of our Korean delegation during GCV Asia: Congress and International Delegation 2023, to shine a spotlight on the nation’s rapidly growing industries and CVC ecosystem, and provided access to the globally renowned COMEUP event.
