Our approach
Three sides. One partnership.
Our model works better than a classic consultancy or a startup database: we work on the three sides of a partnership, and we know how to assess startups fast.
The three sides of a partnership
What goes wrong: unclear need
Corporates
We turn the challenge into a precise use case and a pilot with success criteria.
What goes wrong: wrong startup
Startups
We find, assess and prepare the few startups that can deliver at industrial scale.
What goes wrong: no budget to scale
Funding
With Aster Capital, we structure the deal or secure public funding so the partnership can scale.
How we pick the right solutions
01
Wide
The Aster network and Aster Capital’s database of 60,000 assessed startups, plus targeted scouting.
02
Deep
Screening on the criteria an industrial buyer needs — technology maturity, fit with the use case, ability to deliver at industrial scale, financial solidity — with an investor’s eye.
03
Fit
Only the few that can truly work with the client.
