Corporate Venture Tracker

Track corporate venture investments — stage, ownership, strategic rationale, board rights and follow-on reserves — in the format your CFO and your strategy team can both read.

InnoLead · August 25, 2022 · Microsoft Excel workbook (.xlsx)

CVC portfolios accumulate complexity fast. This tracker keeps the financial and strategic pictures side by side: round, amount, ownership, valuation marks, and reserves next to the strategic thesis and the internal business unit sponsoring the relationship.

The strategic column is the one most trackers omit and the one most often questioned. Writing the thesis down at investment makes the annual review honest.

It ships pre-filled with sample content so you can see the intent of every field, then strip it out and replace it with your own.

Track CVC investments, stage, ownership, strategic rationale and follow-ons. This tool is part of the InnoLead Tools library — a set of editable templates drawn from what our members use to run innovation functions inside large organizations.

How to use it
  • Download the workbook and save a copy under your team's naming convention.
  • Replace the sample rows with your own initiatives, then adjust the column headers to match how your organization tracks work.
  • Refresh it on a set cadence — most teams update monthly and review with leadership quarterly.
