About This Event

What if the next growth opportunity is already inside your company?

Join a curated group of CEOs, CIOs, CSOs, CTOs, CPOs, technology executives, and innovation leaders for an intimate working session on turning existing company assets into credible new ventures. Together, we’ll map the expertise, customers, data, IP, distribution, brand, and infrastructure you already have, then identify which opportunities are worth validating first.

What to Expect

The Venture Building Thesis: Explore how established companies can turn existing advantages into new growth engines.

Asset Mapping: Identify the capabilities, relationships, and resources that could give a new venture an unfair advantage.

Opportunity Development: Translate those assets into potential venture concepts and explore where the strongest opportunities may lie.

Expert Council: Pressure-test ideas through technology, market, customer, product, brand, and venture-building perspectives.

Prioritization & Next Steps: Leave with a clear opportunity to investigate, the critical assumptions to test, and a practical path forward.

💌 Attendance is intentionally limited to preserve a highly curated working experience. If you haven't received an invite but believe you should be in the room, please reach out to eylo@buildmomentum.dev

Who This Is For:

CEOs, CIOs, strategy and corporate-development leaders, and senior executives with a real growth mandate.

Sushi, sake, wine, and thoughtful nonalcoholic options will be served throughout the session.
