As an emerging tech venture, when you join Business Align and Connect you gain instant access to personalised strategic advice and introductions to the most relevant companies in PwC's global corporate network who are looking for what you offer.
Overview
High-growth emerging tech ventures have great ideas that can solve important corporate problems but they often struggle to secure the right meetings, with the right people, at the right time.
We are the key to landing those meetings. We also have expertise across a wide array of topics and industries that can help high-growth tech ventures position – and if necessary, pivot – their offering while scaling up.
Our 5 step partnership for growth process
We use our collective human ingenuity to understand a high-growth emerging tech venture, the problems they solve, and the corporates that would benefit most from their offering. We then work alongside them to introduce their solutions to our clients.
1. Introductions: We meet with an excellent high-growth tech venture to learn about their offerings, their plans and how we might be able to work together within our program.
2. Agreement: We complete a due diligence business review, liaise with execs and boards, if necessary, and sign a contract.
3. Planning: We run collaborative workshops and sessions that focus on the business proposition, pricing and more due diligence to ensure the pitch succeeds.
4. Lead generation: We work with the high-growth tech venture and our internal sales teams on building strategic and focused pipelines with our corporate clients.
5. Getting deals done: We introduce the high-growth tech venture to the right corporate stakeholders who have problems that can be directly solved by their tech. We share feedback and nurture these relationships through to execution.
