The range of organisational designs and their interplay with the objectives of corporate venture capital (CVC) units has yet to be fully understood. Using primary qualitative data collected from 20 CVC units, the authors show that although strategy does not always consciously drive structural design, there are clear patterns of beneficial organisational structure that support achievement of particular objectives. Furthermore, the authors discuss the implications of objectives and organic, hybrid and mechanistic structures on CVC performance, contributing both to the CVC literature and the practice of corporate venturing.
