Corporate venturing is the creation of new businesses by an established company, or its investment in and cooperation with young companies, undertaken to enter new markets, obtain access to new technologies or renew its existing activities. In the management literature it is treated as a subcategory of corporate entrepreneurship, the wider set of entrepreneurial activities carried out within an existing organisation. Reference-work treatments situate corporate venturing within firms' broader pursuit of open innovation, in which companies increasingly seek innovation through engagement with external partners alongside their own research and development. In an influential 1999 paper, Pramodita Sharma and James J. Chrisman divided corporate entrepreneurship into strategic renewal, meaning changes to a company's existing business activities, structures or strategies, and corporate venturing, meaning activities that create new businesses for the corporation through internal or external ventures; the subsequent subdivision of corporate venturing into internal and external types is generally attributed to later work by Morris and co-authors. Corporate venture capital, in which a company takes minority equity stakes in external start-ups, is a widely studied form and has been the subject of its own systematic reviews. Terminology in the field has remained contested, and the demarcation of corporate entrepreneurship has been described as a source of confusion. Corporate venturing activity has occurred in distinct waves since the late 1960s. Assessments of its results are mixed: corporate ventures have been found to require several years to reach profitability, while a large-sample study found corporate venture investments to be at least as successful as those backed by independent venture capital organisations, though corporate programmes lacking a strategic focus were markedly shorter-lived.
