The next stop on our technological journey to China is to explore the country’s innovation ecosystem. Here we will not touch on the topic of venture capital investments, as we discussed it in the previous article. However, we will find out the exact number of unicorns in China, their main habitats and study the activities of the Chinese government in the development of innovations.
MoreGoTech Innovation has been working with Russian corporations for more than 10 years. During last two years we noticed the increasing interest in startups from the corporates, significant number of acceleration programs are launched, go-to-market and pilot projects are announced.
We started an independent survey Corporate Innovation Rating (CIR) to create a view of Russian corporate activity in the open innovation and launching pilot projects with technological startups. The target period of the survey includes information from July 1, 2018 till June 30, 2019.
CIR – is a rating of a number of pilot projects launched by the Corporation with startups during the last year.
The survey will show the state of the Russian market of corporate innovations, cooperation between corporations and startups and will help all of the market participants to draw the necessary conclusions useful for further activities.
During the survey we employ both public data and information provided by corporate representatives, preferably using the provided data. Rating will also include corporations that reported results of their startup cooperation to the media.
The basic ranking parameter is the number of pilot projects launched by the Corporation with startups during the research period. If the number of pilots is equal, the companies are ranked by the number of startups in the pipeline. Corporations that pay for pilots and corporations that provide startups with only access to infrastructure and facilities are ranked in different rating lists.
We encourage corporations to participate in the rating and fill in the rating form till July 30 https://gotechinnovation.com/rating-form/
The rating report will be published after September 1.
