building, managing, scaling

Our Venture Building model is based on the concept of Founder-As-A-Service:
we are not just consultants, but true Co-Founders alongside those who want to create and grow a startup.

For founders starting from scratch.
For SMEs looking to innovate.
For corporates aiming to explore new markets.

Thanks to the experience and professionalism of our team, we support the newco in every aspect, from the early stage to the go-to-market phase.
PHASE 1

Validation

We identify the business idea and implement all the necessary methodologies and processes to validate its feasibility and market competitiveness.

GO/NO GO: We analyze the market, problem relevance, economic viability, and investor appeal to determine whether a project has a solid foundation to be built.
OUTPUTS DELIVERED

Market Analysis

Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the target market to identify and assess key trends, market size, and the competitive landscape.

MVP analysis

Preliminary business model and MVP definition, along with problem-solution fit validation using mixed methods (surveys, interviews, landing pages).

Planning and valuation

Development of a short- and mid-term financial plan to assess the project’s economic feasibility, funding needs, and company pre-money valuation.

lnvestor strategy

Preparation of the investor deck and definition of the fundraising strategy.
PHASE 2

Creation

We co-found the startup and take care of all technical, legal, and operational aspects related to incorporation, launch preparation, and go-live.

GO/NO GO: We move forward only after the capital increase has been approved and subscribed, ensuring real commitment and project sustainability.
OUTPUTS DELIVERED

Venture foundation

Incorporation of the newco, management of all related technical and legal aspects, and execution of the funding round in line with the fundraising strategy.

Operations setup

Setup of all necessary tools for monitoring business performance, communication systems, document sharing, and administration.

Team setup

Definition of the organizational structure, and search and selection of the professional roles needed by the startup that are not already present within the WDA or originator team.

Team & Partner setup

Training of the internal team and identification of partners relevant to industrial or commercial business development.
PHASE 3

Execution

After laying the foundations, we guide the project through its most strategic phase: execution.

We take a proactive role in managerial decisions, with the goal of quickly achieving clear metrics and market traction.
AREAS OF INTERVENTION

Operations

Operational coordination of the team and ongoing monitoring of business performance, with regular reporting to the Originator’s stakeholders.

Finance

Financial management of the newco, including planning, management control, accounting oversight, performance monitoring, and reporting.

Strategy

Business development and strategy supervision, including the definition of growth objectives and management of investor relations.

Marketing

Marketing and digital strategy, covering implementation and oversight of marketing strategy, digital advertising, content creation, social media marketing, UX/UI design, and web development.

Legal

Legal management, including supervision of legal matters, risk management, and advisory on regulatory compliance and corporate governance.
EXECUTION MODES

The execution phase can evolve in two operational directions, depending on the maturity of the team and the needs of the project:

Venture Building - complete service

We continue to operate as the internal team, guiding the startup through go-to-market, growth, and day-to-day management. This is the natural continuation for those who started with us from 0 to 1 and need full-team support.

CXO as a service

We step in with key roles to strengthen specific functions. This is the ideal solution for already structured teams looking to accelerate growth with targeted strategic expertise.
