Designed for high-growth startups looking to accelerate their enterprise go-to-market strategy and partner with the Fortune 500. Our proprietary platform creates connections and facilitates relationships between entrepreneurs and corporate decision-makers.
Enterprise
Go-To-Market Program
Our 10-week program helps refine your Enterprise Go-to-Market strategy and provides a smoother path to break into and scale within the Fortune 500.
We take an individualized approach with founders, creating tailored plans to build an enterprise sales playbook and connect with the corporate leaders making critical company-wide decisions. Startups go through the Engage Program in a Cohort of 6-8 other companies, learning from entrepreneur peers who are also focused on breaking into enterprise channels. The Program runs twice a year, in the Spring and Fall.
Corporate Access
Our team works closely with the most senior leaders and executives within the corporate partners: AT&T, Chick-fil-A, Cox Enterprises, Delta Air Lines, Georgia-Pacific, Georgia Power Foundation, Georgia Tech, Goldman Sachs, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), The Home Depot, Invesco, Invest Georgia, Tech Square Ventures, and UPS.
Direct top-down support helps startups navigate the enterprise sales and partnership process.
Expert and
Founder Network
The Engage network is made up of entrepreneurs, practitioners and experts skilled in navigating the complexities of commercial relationships with Fortune 500 companies.
Portfolio companies gain access to invite-only events and gatherings with top venture investors, Fortune 500 CEOs and executives, and other entrepreneurs.
Partner corporations utilize the Engage innovation platform to gain curated insights into the future of industries through a venture lens, collaborate with peers at like-minded organizations, and flex their entrepreneurial muscle.
Cross-Corporate Learning
We work closely with our corporate partners to facilitate innovation at scale. Rather than being limited to an industry-specific market view, corporate partners work with like-minded peers across verticals to get ahead of emerging market trends, accelerate their learning, and speed up innovation cycles.
Enterprise events
Engage hosts regular curated events, industry roundtables, and expert councils for our corporate partners to share knowledge, resources, and ideas with other member companies.
Our events facilitate the convergence of startups and enterprise, catalyzing an environment where new ideas and relationships can come to life and thrive.
Insights Engine
In conjunction with the Enterprise Innovation Institute at Georgia Tech, Engage collates and analyzes information on new enterprise verticals, sourcing powerful insights and developing data-driven theses to share with corporate partners and enable better innovation decisions.
In tandem, Engage and its corporate partners use these Insights to incubate new internal businesses, pilot innovative startup technology, make strategic investments, and validate their acquisition strategy.
Bridge Builders
