How does Startup Scouting help me in my innovation process?
If you want to know which innovative ideas on the market fit your needs or search field, it is important to know or analyze the market well. Startup scouting (also called startup sourcing or startup screening) helps you to find and get to know the most relevant startups for your company. With this knowledge, you can make informed make-buy-partner decisions and find the right startups for your business case or growth strategy, for example.
The implementation of startup scouting by Ambivation is software-supported and we usually provide you with the result via our web-based tool with evaluation function or an office document.
If you are considering setting up the scouting internally or hybrid, we will support you in the decision, set-up and selection of the right tools with our experience through:
- Sparring for the setup and ongoing operation of scouting activities
- Our scouting software Coopsaas with integrated database
- Our Startup Scouting Masterclass.
