Koch companies are open
to external innovation that will create superior value. This is accomplished through
joint development, joint marketing, licensing, or acquisition of external innovations.
Additionally, Koch companies may invest and sponsor Principled Entrepreneurs with disruptive innovations that are synergistic to Koch companies. We offer external innovators more than just capital. We offer core capabilities and principles that have contributed to the success of Koch Industries for more than 40 years. Koch companies partner with proven entrepreneurs who have the integrity, vision, passion and expertise to build sustainable companies that can create new markets, displace industry incumbents, and generate significant returns. We will look for disruptive innovations across a broad spectrum of business areas in which Koch companies have existing capabilities such as refining and chemicals; fibers and polymers; forest and consumer products, chemical processes and specialty materials. Our investment focus is grounded by capabilities rather than bounded by industry. |
