OUR APPROACH

A typical VC firm tracks thousands of startups a year, and only invests in 20.
You need to cast an equally wide net when it comes to your own startup programs in order to tap into the best talent.
But don't worry, we do it all for you.

1 - BUSINESS MODEL

In order to best work with you, we gain an understanding of your business model.

2 - CHALLENGE

We work with you to identify strategic problem or opportunity areas and define your challenge statement(s).

3 - SEARCH

We use a proprietary machine learning tool we've developed, our networks and scouts to perform a comprehensive local and global search for challenge aligned startups and scale-ups and invite them to respond to the challenge statement(s).

4 - EVALUATE

We leverage analytics to assess challenge applicants across more than 30 factors and develop an initial shortlist.

5 - INTERVIEW

We roll up our sleeves and interview all of the shortlisted applicants, so you don't have to, in order to find out what the data doesn't tell us and determine fit for purpose, further optimizing the shortlist.

6 - final shortlist

We present you with the shortlist for review and feedback, and provide you with evaluation guidance.

7 - select

We help you select which companies to work with. This could also take the form of a pitch event at your company HQ.

8 - get stuff done

We help you determine the best engagement method and how best to work with startups, so that you get the most out of the engagement.

TESTIMONIALS

Aidan Coleman

CTO at Charter Hall

"We’re delighted to have partnered with Collective Campus to create Australia’s first accelerator program for property technology start-ups. They brought together the right network, focus, energy, structure and support mechanisms to make this program a remarkable success not only for Charter Hall but importantly for the participating start-ups."

Jen Bednar

Director of Customer and Business Transformation

"Both Collective Campus and the councils were really clear on the role they needed to play, the communication was nice and open, and we managed to go through the process in a relatively quick amount of time which was fantastic for the startups! The crew at Collective Campus are very innovative and really go out of their way to ensure that the initial objective was what we achieve in the end so I’d love to work with them again in the future”

Karna Luke

General Manager SME at BNZ

"Throughout the process, Steve and his team provided a fantastic mix of corporate awareness and a keen knowledge of the international startup, scaleup and business model innovator community. This experience with Collective Campus’ flexibility, undoubtedly helped make Go SME Grow the success we intended."

Max Tiong

Head of Transformation, NTUC Income

"Our COO was of praise regarding the way the team has operated in the view to always give us the value that makes sense to the organization and not have the corporates constantly “accommodate” to the startup way. It was a good marriage of how corporates and startups can work closely together. Our engagement focused really around the team helping us interact, identify and integrate startups and their POCs into Income."

Matthew Swards

Manager of Business Improvement, Ballarat City Council

"Shay and the team were able to effectively work with the Councils to identify appropriate statements to attract startups across the world, leading to a large number of applications to the program, and some potential fantastic outcomes for the community that would not have been accessible without the assistance of Collective Campus"
