Through the partnership, clients will benefit from tailored services and best-in-class support across two complementary areas: GlassDollar will focus on advancing its technology platform, while Start2 will deliver consulting and operational execution for corporate clients.
Together, the partners provide three key advantages for customers: data-driven identification of relevant startup solutions, professional project execution including proof-of-concepts (PoCs), and the ability to roll out innovation programs consistently across international markets.
“The demand for Venture Clienting continues to grow globally,” says Fabian Dudek, CEO of GlassDollar. “Since 2019, we have evolved into the leading provider in this space. By scaling our proven playbooks through Start2, we can expand our service capabilities while doubling-down on the development of our platform towards innovation procurement.”
The partnership further strengthens Start2 Group’s Venture Clienting offering. With a track record of more than 500 innovation projects for DAX corporations, mid-sized enterprises, and hidden champions - combined with a presence on five continents and in 18 markets - Start2 Group provides the ideal infrastructure to enable effective collaboration between established companies and innovative startups.
“Start2 Group delivers unique accelerator, scale-up, and corporate innovation programs”, says Matthias Notz, Global CEO of Start2 Group. “With 140 employees and a global network of more than 1,300 mentors and experts, we are ideally positioned to provide holistic, global support for companies in their innovation journeys.”
For clients, the partnership ensures continuity through clearly defined responsibilities and well-established processes. While Start2 Group leads operational service delivery and project execution, GlassDollar provides the digital backbone for identifying, evaluating, and implementing innovative solutions. The result is a seamless integration of high-quality data and practical execution excellence.
