Venture builders are the ultimate value-add startup endeavor for mitigating risk and maximizing outcomes. They provide a structured environment that shortens the gap between a promising technology and business opportunity with practical market applications. The model delivers higher equity positions for equity-partners, compared to typical venture capital deals, and leverages experts, such as Rokk3r, to mitigate risk associated with early-stage company building.
“Rokk3r’s experience and footprint in the Americas is critical to refining my ideas and building new and innovative businesses that will bring the future of retail into reality,” added Dimas Gimeno. “Equally important to me is the opportunity to leverage the ecosystems we are building in our respective continents. It means we can provide a more valuable and broader network for our retail startups as they grow their businesses.”
