Digital Ventures is now part of BCG X, home to the world's best tech-build and design talent.

We are an ever-growing global team of the world's most remarkable entrepreneurs, designers, engineers, venture architects, and product experts. Our ventures create a strategic advantage for the most important global companies.

Since our founding in 2014, we've partnered closely with 400+ clients - most of which are Fortune 500 organizations - to invent, launch, and scale innovative businesses that leverage and reinforce their core capabilities. The ventures we build with them are inclusive of both new, standalone companies, as well as those developed within the framework of the client organization. The growth and value realized through our corporate venturing work has even led clients to collaborate with us to build and launch multiple businesses.

Venture Architects at BCGDV

Our venture architects are world-class business leaders, corporate strategists, product specialists, and designers. They carry the tall order of defining the field of opportunity and scope of our ventures and must wear many hats to develop the marketing, pricing, and operational structures needed to commercialize new products and businesses. As project leaders, they manage ventures from beginning to end, and may even transition to running these new businesses in the market.
