Corporate-Startup
Collaboration
We initiate networks that connect the ecosystem
Building greatness, one link at a time.
Corporate-Startup Collaboration for Growth (CSC for Growth) aims to facilitate, strengthen, and support new collaborations between startups and established corporates.
Via networks, a yearly CSC-Summit, trips abroad, and targeted knowledge sharing, the project will strengthen both corporates and startups in the initial phase of a collaboration or investment.
The project is backed by Industriens Fond.
