Venture Building
Transform your corporate assets into exponential businesses
The life cycles of organizations are becoming increasingly shorter.
At the same time, large companies face difficulties in leveraging their assets—such as customers, data, channels, and infrastructure—to open new fronts of exponential growth with the same agility as startups.
→ This occurs due to three main causes:
Decision-making process and lack of clear thesis:
The decision-making process prioritizes the core business (“business as usual”), while a structured thesis to transform existing assets into new relevant businesses is missing.
People mobilization:
There is a significant challenge in assigning senior leaders to fledgling businesses and attracting talent with the necessary skills to deal with the uncertainty of new territories.
Misaligned operating model and incentives:
New businesses are frequently evaluated using core business metrics and are constrained by traditional corporate structures. A model that balances necessary synergies with the freedom to grow is lacking.

How we have helped our clients and partners
EloGroup acts as a risk-sharing partner (Venture Partner), implementing a co-entrepreneurship model to unlock the potential of your assets. Our solution is based on three pillars:
We create inspiring visions with strategic direction, connected to specific business models and a concrete path to make that vision viable without risky steps.
We design the ideal governance to avoid the “knee-jerk reaction” of the parent company and build incentive mechanisms that attract senior talent and high-level entrepreneurs.
We collaborate closely with the client, sharing joint responsibility for success. We combine expertise in business, technology, analytics, and AI to accelerate the launch of the new business.
We operate from strategy to delivery, activating strategic levers to transform your assets into new relevant businesses. Our approach is flexible and adapts to your current situation:
If you don't yet have a clear strategy, we help you create one. Then, we act as a partner in execution, mobilizing our team, technology, and ecosystem to accelerate the process. A fundamental part of our strategy is to define the best vehicle to enable each growth thesis. We support you in choosing and executing the ideal model for your reality:
Venture Building (internal incubation)

Direct investment in Startups

Corporate Venture Capital (CVC)

M&A (mergers and acquisitions)

We use AI to process large volumes of data and anticipate promising trends and theses.
We map your data and technology assets to identify growth levers and apply our native digital expertise to build businesses that are born with scale.
Strategy
We define an aspirational vision and a robust investment thesis, challenging industry paradigms. We secure buy-in from the board and senior leadership to create a clear and powerful strategic north for the new business.
Transformation
We connect the investment thesis to your company’s reality, designing the business and operating models. We map specific value levers—such as your customer base, data, and channels—to create a unique competitive advantage for the new venture.
Delivery
We allocate a team of entrepreneurs to execute the vision with agility and focus.
We operate end-to-end, from prototyping to launch, sharing joint responsibility for success to make the new business happen and scale at a startup pace.
In recent years, we have helped senior leadership at the largest companies in Brazil and worldwide navigate the challenges of transformation:
Track record in venturing

Corporate mobilization
We possess the ability to overcome the constraints of large corporations to quickly implement innovation.
360° competencies

Ecosystem of talent and partners
We maintain an active network of startups, funds and entrepreneurs to connect new businesses with the right partners and leaders.
Alignment of interests
We seek to build partnership models with long-term incentives, such as success fees or equity stakes, so that our success is directly tied to the growth of your new business.
Our solution is designed for large organizations that have unique assets (customers, data, channels) but feel trapped by management models that hinder agile moves.
We primarily serve:
→ Boards and investors
Those seeking to monetize assets and create new avenues for company growth.
→ C-level executives (CEOs, strategy, finance, and technology directors)
Responsible for unlocking the growth agenda and wanting to leave a legacy, but hesitant to invest without guaranteed returns.
→ Innovation and new business executives
Mandated to innovate but needing support, political backing, and an internal coalition to enable and drive their initiatives.
