Our Approach
Starting With a Problem
The innovation process begins with a list of problems.
From helping remote workers get their focus back, to enabling websites to capture the leads they deserve, all of our ventures aim to solve a major problem facing tomorrow’s leading companies.
Through a process of rapid ideation, design sprints, and customer development we identify and shape a problem into a small, viable product in a matter of weeks.
Finding Product-Market Fit
Once we’ve built a small viable product, we work in short iterative cycles with beta users to develop the product into a sustainable business that earns the attention and loyality of customers.
About two thirds of our ventures achieve product-market fit, enabling them to proceed to phase three; Acceleration.
Unlocking Growth
The Accleration phase aims to discover the one growth lever that, when doubled down on, leads to exceptional growth.
As a bootstrapped venture studio, we opt for a sustainable approach to growth; Choosing profitable business models over the short-sighted mantra of ‘scale now, monetise later’ that is so prevelant in tech.
Despite this, or perhaps because of it, our growth is 10X higher than the average European venture firm, and our ventures are some of the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK.
Growth on Autopilot
This is where Venture Harbour’s approach diverges from the norm.
Instead of raising capital and hiring large teams, we do exactly the opposite; Automating as much of the venture’s growth strategy so that it continues to grow on autopilot while we focus on our next venture.
We’re often asked how we’re able to run so many ventures with a small team – the answer: Automation.
