Inventures is an alliance management company specializing in expanding markets for new and growing companies by creating, launching, and managing collaborative alliances or “business ecosystems.” Alliances often engage us to help them define their goals and desired results. We work closely with legal advisors and founding sponsors to structure their alliance so they have a strong organizational foundation.
