Byld is a Spanish Corporate Venture Builder founded in 2017 that designs, validates and launches new ventures with corporations sharing risks and rewards from day one. We lead and co-found new ventures from scratch combining the best of the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds to encourage the creation of scalable businesses with an international scope. We believe that our formula for helping companies innovate is more effective and less risky than traditional methods, as it is entirely devoted to it and linked to the strategy of the corporation in the mid-long term. This allows corporations to properly confront the fierce competence of startups and other rivals and adapt to the constant change of present times, transforming opportunities and tendencies into new disrupting businesses. Ultimately, this is achieved thanks to the combination of the dynamism, versatility and culture behind the startups mindset that we bring to the table and the resources, outreach and experience of the big corporations that we partner with.
