Venture Partnership Model

You get speed now and ownership choices later.

Founders work with Cavendish to accelerate R&D while preserving strategic optionality. We can hold IP and license usage rights, co-develop transfer clauses, or execute full purchase agreements after validation.

Commercial Structures

One operating model. Three ownership paths.

We align structure to your funding stage, regulatory reality, and build velocity. Every path includes clear milestones and legal checkpoints.

Path A

Licensed Access

Fastest

  • Cavendish retains IP ownership.
  • Startup receives commercial field-of-use rights.
  • Best for pre-seed teams proving market signal.

Path B

Co-Development

Balanced

  • Defined contribution model and shared value creation.
  • Transfer options triggered by milestones.
  • Fits startups with early institutional backing.

Path C

Full Acquisition

Control

  • Complete IP purchase once traction is proven.
  • Includes assignment package and continuity support.
  • Designed for scale-stage commercialization.
