Welcome to Watermelon!
Venture builders are organizations designed to produce innovative companies, generally startups, and support their growth. These are the main activities engaged by venture builders: screen and identify business ideas and plans, build successful teams, find capital and support startups’ strategy and operations through mentoring and shared services.
Here in Watermelon, we provide meaningful assistance to our startups, by raising seed capital and team building to internally founded startups or by facilitating investments, mentoring, strategically advising and sharing tech team to the selected ones.
Each fund or corporation have its particular approach toward innovation.
For this reason, we designed our services to meet the needs of each organization, regardless its vision, maturity or objectives about innovation.
