How does a CVC keep pace with over 4,000 startups a year while staying lean, collaborative, and integrated across a global enterprise? In this session, Samsung NEXT’s Jinny and Sam walk through the practical workflows and tools that power their investment process, from sourcing and diligence to post-investment engagement. You’ll learn how they track key performance metrics, structure status-driven workflows to align cross-functional teams, and share curated pipelines to avoid crossed wires.
