We co-create the company.
The Build side of Cofoundry. For corporate and institutional partners with a big problem, and for the theses we surface in our own consulting work — we find the problem worth solving, design the venture, and build it.
Not an incubator that watches. A co-founder that builds, with operators and skin in the game.
Co-creating new companies, as a co-founder.
Build is where new companies get made. We operate as a co-founder, not a detached incubator — providing the operational heavy-lifting (product, design, engineering, go-to-market) to get a venture from a problem to product-market fit. The ideas come from two places: problems we see repeatedly in our consulting work, and big problems that corporate or institutional partners bring us.
We package the work the way the best studios do — as scoped engagements with clear shapes. A venture sprint asks whether there's a company here at all. Venture design produces the thesis, the model, and the build plan. Build & launch takes it from there to an MVP and first customers. And a studio partnership co-creates a portfolio of ventures with one partner over time.
Because we sit on top of a consulting practice and a capital arm, the build doesn't happen in isolation: Consulting validates the demand, our shared operator bench does the heavy-lifting lean, and Capital is ready to fund at graduation. When a build is ready to scale, it moves to the Grow side.
Four ways we co-create.
Engage one or several — most start with the sharpest and expand.
Venture sprint
Is there a company here? A short, consulting-funded validation before any equity or build.
Venture design
The thesis, the business model, and the build plan — the blueprint before a line of code.
Build & launch
From blueprint to a working MVP and first customers, built by our own operators.
Studio partnership
A portfolio of ventures co-created with one corporate or institutional partner over time.
Shared operator bench
Fractional product, design, engineering, and growth — deployed across builds, kept lean.
Path to Grow & Capital
A clean handoff to scale, and to Capital funding at graduation.
Ways to start.
Clear scope, clear outcome.
Venture Sprint
Validate whether there's a company here — consulting-funded, no equity yet.
Build & Launch
Co-create the MVP and reach first customers, founder-aligned stake.
Studio Partnership
Co-create a portfolio of ventures with one partner over time.
The things people ask first.
Do you only build your own ideas?
No. Build works both ways — our own theses from consulting, and big problems that corporate or institutional partners bring us to co-create around.
What do you bring to the build?
Operational heavy-lifting: product, design, engineering, and go-to-market from a shared operator bench — plus in-house validation and a path to capital.
Do you take equity for building?
Yes — a meaningful, founder-aligned stake, on the hybrid model where we build at-cost and Capital clears the deferred fees at graduation.
What happens after the MVP?
It moves to Grow to scale, and to Capital to fund. The build is the start of the cycle, not the end.
Have a problem worth a company?
Tell us the problem. We'll tell you fast whether there's a venture in it — and co-build it if there is.
