19 Take outs..what s been happening Corporates have had less cash to invest in venture Off-balance sheet investors have throttled back However corporates recognize more than ever the growth imperative Open Innovation is increasingly i at the center of their thinking Growth agenda now paramount as businesses seek to think beyond the recession Corporates are about to enter a very different and very unfamiliar environment this was no ordinary recession.the bubbly asset prices, even easier credit and cheap oil that fueled America s age of consumerism are not about to return. Instead America s economy will undergo one of its biggest transformations in decades..bringing different lifestyles and different jobs in different places The Economist: Time to rebalance: A special report on America s economy: April 3 rd 2010

20 There has been a multi-decade shift in technology innovation towards smaller enterprises % of spend of US R&D by size of enterprise 100% 90% 80% 70% > < % 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Source: National Science Foundation, Science Resource Studies, Survey of Industrial Research Development Thanks also to Sanjiv Parikh for this slide

21 Corporates are making some big shifts not just new NVCA members But also putting resources on the ground in the Valley Recent announcements of W. Coast offices.now seeing this for Asian businesses too

22 Corporate VC: the impact on the broader VC market Likely material reduction in the number of venture firms Fundraising environment, succession plans, move to smaller funds The imperative for partnership for start-ups Dominance of M&A as the exit route Source of non-dilutive capital and market entry mechanism Competition accelerates for corporate venture investors Choices for partnership are growing Corporate VC money and expertise likely to be of growing significance in the future For corporates, increasing open innovation capabilities means that they are looking for more than just scouting new technologies.new growth options will be a major deliverable from VC partners

23 Challenges and Thoughts.using partnership to build a business The VC Capital Partners Discipline Structure New Business The Start-up Speed Entrepreneur New capabilities The Corporate Technology Resources Scale

24 Partnering to Scale $1BN $100MM $10MM $1MM Insight Catalyze Partner Buy Corporates need to shift the needle on growth Frequently that means scaling beyond VC means How do partnerships manage this? What s the role of private equity? How do you transition through the growth stages?

25 ..we look forward to seeing you in the months ahead and in Boston on Nov 4 th to discuss and tackle these issues.
