The Power and Value of Executive Services

High-level overview of the Research Process:

  • Each year an estimated 10,000 new startups and products are introduced across Emerging Tech sectors we track.
  • We quickly identify and remove nearly 90% of the new offerings not likely see any substantial market traction.
  • Our Research team reviews and examines each unique offering from the remaining 10%.
  • Approximately 1% realize substantial traction and are added to our portfolio.
  • And one or two each year emerge as breakaway success and become house hold names .
