Become a Partner

This is not a traditional partnership model.

The CVC | Open Innovation Summit is part of a broader Strategic Capital Platform, a global, invite-only environment designed to align capital, innovation, and strategy across regions.

We work with a small number of partners who see this as long-term infrastructure, not a marketing opportunity. Participation is based on alignment, contribution, and the ability to engage at a senior level.

What partnership enables

  1. Access

    Access to a highly curated, closed-door group of senior decision-makers (CxO, SVP, Board level)

  2. Dialogue

    Participation in peer-level dialogue across corporates, investors, and policy

  3. Involvement

    Involvement in working sessions, white papers, and ongoing discussions

  4. Foresight

    Early visibility into emerging themes shaping corporate strategy and capital allocation

  5. Network

    Connection to a global network spanning the Americas, Europe, Asia and Middle East & Africa

Visibility exists, but it is a by-product of contribution, not the objective.

Partner a regional summit

Three levels, for every regional summit.

The same three levels apply to each Summit: Americas, Europe, Asia and Middle East & Africa. Prices are the same number in euros or dollars, depending on the region.
