2013 Corporate Venture Capital Investment in US:
- First non bubble year ever that more than 10% of the total VC deployed came from corporate VC groups
- Total CVC invested up to 39% in 2013 over 2012 (3.1B vs 2.2B)


Pitfalls to get VC partnerships started - how to go to market and convince your corporate management team:
- Executive leadership team, forward thinking and understanding the problem
- Show the cycles to your management team, walk them through the longevity
- Need curiosity
- Be careful how you set up the governance mechanism

You need to measure success both strategically and financially - where is the partnership going and are you on the right path?

Remember to track the impact that your team is having.

10 years ago advantage rested alone with the largest companies - today the situation is almost completely reversed because of small and medium businesses new adoption and solutions.

2.5 million money making households outside the banking industry - tapping this market has a high potential. The concept; build new payment rails that will force adoption.
