How Spin-In Works for Your Company
- Most deals would involve emerging start-ups where your market would be an “add-on” market
- Primary deal flow occurs where your company acts as a “channel partner,” not an acquirer
- Generally no investment required; in some cases, minority investment to solidify exclusivity might be desirable
- Your company earns revenues and profit by taking the innovation into your customers, leveraging your company's understanding of applications and contacts with decision makers
- Partner companies would continue as separate entities pursuing their main markets
- TechSpin serves as a “broker” to help identify and realize opportunities
- Your company articulates unmet needs
- TechSpin mines contacts in the world or emerging startups to surface opportunities
- TechSpin negotiates on behalf of, and is paid by, the technology seller
