THE INNOVATION PROBLEM

Scouting is easy. Deciding is hard.

Innovation teams collect long lists of startups, but the information is inconsistent, quickly outdated and disconnected from the business units that have to act on it.

WHY STARTUPFUEL

A network, not a static database.

Companies on StartupFuel are maintained by their founders and connected to the investors and programs around them, so what you scout today is still accurate when you are ready to pilot.

Typical scouting

  • Static lists that go stale
  • Inconsistent company data
  • Evaluations trapped in slides
  • No link to investors or programs

With StartupFuel

  • Founder-maintained company records
  • Standardized intelligence across companies
  • Reusable diligence and evaluation
  • Connected to capital and program networks
