Breaking barriers
to successful startup X corporate collaborations
The Event
The purpose of the Essity Ventures Start Up Days is to break barriers to successful startup-corporate collaborations. Being different by nature, but often united in their mission, startups and corporates may unleash synergies when working together, and pursuing and achieving similar goals. Making 1+1 =3!
At the Essity Ventures Start Up Days, we brought together 17 startups, various ecosystem partners and Essity representatives at our Essity office in Aschheim/Munich. During the two-day event, participants exchanged experience and perspectives on how to bring startup-corporate collaborations to success.
