https://www.linkedin.com/company/rainmaking-venture-studio/
Rainmaking is a global corporate innovation and venture development firm. Their Venture Studio offers a model for large companies to acquire the startups they want at the time that they need them at a price they can afford.
Rainmaking Venture Studio combines the scale strengths of large companies with their deep experience in building ventures to create high-growth ventures. This approach de-risks the process of building strategically aligned businesses for their corporate partners, without losing long-term ownership.
Rainmaking acts as professional venture builders and investors, co-investing with companies and sharing in the risk and reward. They are not consultants or a development agency, so they never charge fees, but act as true partners.
