Show Notes
For our fourth episode, we take a deep dive into the mechanics of building a Corporate Venture Capital arm from the ground up.
Joining the conversation are Sriharsha Bandaluppi and Shashvat Somany, as they unpack the thinking, structure, and realities behind setting up and running a CVC.
Together, they explore:
- Intent before investment — why clarity of purpose shapes every decision
- Talent as the differentiator — the need for dual fluency across startups and corporates
- The CVC structure — from deal flow and POCs to IC and board approvals
- POCs as the real filter — where most opportunities are truly tested
- BU alignment — navigating internal buy-in and the triad of returns
- Governance in motion — the role of ICs and boards in decision-making
- Evangelism and scale — turning pilots into organisation-wide momentum
A grounded look at CVCs — focused less on theory, and more on the systems, decisions, and execution that make them work.
Hosted by Team Tattva — because at Tattva, the pilot is the product.
