At Cink Venturing we drive meaningful change

We support public institutions, corporations and innovation ecosystems in the design and development of programmes that activate talent, strengthen entrepreneurship and generate sustainable growth in the territories where we work.  

Our approach is cross-cutting, flexible and collaborative. We work alongside public administrations, companies, universities, hubs and entrepreneurial communities to turn ideas into real projects: from strategy and ecosystem activation, to startup acceleration or corporate intrapreneurship.

With a strong presence at local, national and international levels—and hands-on experience in leading European consortia and programmes—we bring methodology, networks and expertise to ensure each initiative achieves tangible impact, scalability and global reach.

More than simply executing programmes, we connect people, organisations and technologies to create living ecosystems where innovation flows, talent grows and local economies transform sustainably.
Service Portfolio
Ecosystem strategy and analysis
We drive the development of innovative ecosystems through knowledge and evidence.

We produce diagnostics and strategic reports on territories, sectors, communities and ecosystem actors to identify strengths, gaps and growth levers.

Based on this foundation, we design strategies, roadmaps and governance models that transform data into action: from acceleration and open innovation programmes to the design of innovation hubs, nodes or transfer plans.

Our approach is clear: we connect ecosystem actors, align interests and mobilise resources, enabling effective and measurable innovation policies.
Entrepreneurial culture and skills development
We create learning experiences that spark entrepreneurial and innovative mindsets in individuals and organisations.
 
We design tailored learning pathways—introductory, advanced and specialised—combining practical training, mentoring and collaborative work. Our learning-by-doing method turns ideas into action and skills into real outcomes.
 
We adapt content, cases and examples to each sector or territory, ensuring strong alignment with real needs and immediate applicability.
 
We also cultivate communities of practice where participants strengthen competencies, share experiences and progress independently in developing their ideas and projects.
 
The result: more capable professionals, more dynamic ecosystems and an expanding innovative culture.
Startup and scale-up programmes (360º development: idea → market → internationalisation)

We support entrepreneurs and startups from initial ideation through to international scale-up. We design comprehensive incubation, acceleration and growth programmes that combine training, mentoring, customer validation and real pilots, enabling each project to progress with rigour and long-term vision.

We work both in specialised verticals—technology, sustainability, culture or creative industries—and in multisector formats, adapting metrics, criteria and partners to the needs of each initiative. Our goal: to turn strong ideas into viable companies, and early-stage companies into scalable business models.

The result: better-prepared startups with traction, investment and global projection.

Intrapreneurship and innovation capabilities

We activate internal talent so innovation can emerge from within organisations.

We design intrapreneurship programmes that help teams transform ideas into prototypes and viable pilots through agile methodologies and evidence-based decision-making. Each programme runs in sprints and cohorts, fostering a more creative, collaborative and results-driven organisational culture.

Open innovation: challenges and pilots

We connect corporations and startups to solve real strategic challenges. We design open innovation programmes—from challenge definition to pilot execution with measurable impact.

We select the most suitable solutions, support their validation and assess their technical and operational adoption. We also apply this approach to the public sector through GovTech initiatives that modernise public management and bring innovation closer to administration.

Multi-Stakeholder co-creation and pilot validation
We facilitate collaboration between public administrations, universities, companies and technology centres to accelerate joint innovation.

We design and coordinate co-creation and pilot validation processes, generating agreements, dynamics and tangible results. Our role is to orchestrate the process: aligning objectives, reducing friction and turning collaboration into shared value.
Innovation hubs and nodes: design, operations and community
We design and manage innovation hubs, nodes and communities that foster connection, learning and collaboration. We oversee the entire cycle—strategy, operations, programming and communication—creating vibrant spaces where people, ideas and projects come together to grow. Our hubs become true engines of transformation, with strong local impact and integration into international networks.
Communication and branding for ecosystems, communities and innovation & entrepreneurship initiatives

We give identity, voice and visibility to the initiatives that transform the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem. We develop 360º communication and branding strategies tailored to each context and deployed across the most relevant digital impact channels: social media, multimedia content, specialised media, web platforms and events.

Our communication is rooted in the innovation and entrepreneurship landscape, enabling us to connect with the right audiences, amplify messages and position projects where they belong. We combine narrative, design and digital innovation to build ecosystem brands that are strong, recognisable and purpose-driven. We help each programme or community express its essence, strengthen its reputation and attract talent, partners and investment. Because effective communication is also innovation—and strategic communication is essential for every project to grow, connect and endure.

Design and production of innovation and entrepreneurship events

We turn innovation and entrepreneurship events into memorable experiences that create connection and impact. We design and produce forums, sector-based meetings, demo days, hackathons and international missions that showcase programmes and strengthen communities.

We take care of every detail—from content and networking to branding and experience—ensuring each event leaves a lasting impression, inspires and generates real opportunities for collaboration.

Cross-cutting values

Innovation is only transformative when managed with vision and evidence. That is why at Cink Venturing we integrate a robust governance model and an impact evaluation system across all our services.

We define roles, processes and coordination mechanisms that ensure the sustainability of each initiative and support shared decision-making. We measure activity, results and programme learnings, providing clear evidence and verifiable data to guide strategies and demonstrate real, measurable value.

Our commitment is to ensure that every action leaves a mark and contributes to generating positive, lasting and transparent impact.

Innovation flourishes when it is connected. We activate an extensive network of experts, mentors, institutions and organisations that bring knowledge, resources and visibility to each project.

This network enables us to expand the scope of initiatives, integrate new perspectives and create synergies among public, private and academic actors. Our ability to connect generates real opportunities for collaboration at local, national and international levels, strengthening the ecosystems where we work and expanding their impact.

At Cink Venturing, we believe that collaboration is the smartest way to innovate.

Expert guidance is often the difference between an idea and a tangible result. We provide each client with diverse, highly qualified teams with proven experience in the key areas of innovation and entrepreneurship.

From specialists in specific technologies and sectors to mentors with successful track records, our model ensures strategic, personalised and top-quality support. We offer close, practical and results-oriented guidance so each project can progress with clarity, strength and added value.

Our purpose is not only to guide projects, but to enhance the talent that drives them.
