MBA Venture Launch Intern

TechNexus is a Venture Collaborative, a dynamic investment and innovation platform that builds and scales high-growth businesses by bridging corporate capital, startup ecosystems, and industry transformation. Through corporate joint ventures, venture capital funds, and hands-on venture building, we unlock new markets, accelerate growth, and create lasting value for corporations, investors, and founders alike.

TechNexus is continually exploring and building new disruptive business models across various sectors. We identify significant market opportunities where existing solutions fall short, and we leverage our unique strategic partnerships and venture-building expertise to create category-leading companies from the ground up. This is a "0 to 1" build phase, where you will be instrumental in shaping the foundational strategy and business plan for our next venture.

As an MBA Venture Launch Intern, you will act as a critical extension of the TechNexus core team, providing hands-on support in the foundational stages of building a new disruptive business. This role is designed for proactive, analytical, and entrepreneurial MBA candidates eager to apply their skills to real-world venture creation. You will contribute directly to market validation, strategic planning, and the early-stage development of our next venture's unique value proposition. This is not an operational role within a launched business, but rather a strategic role focused on defining and launching the venture.

- Interview market participants and experts to understand existing market dynamics, competitive landscapes, and potential partnership opportunities.

Strategic & Business Model Development:

- Assist in developing foundational components of new business plans, including identifying target markets, defining value propositions, and outlining initial revenue models and cost structures.

- Contribute to competitive analysis across various industry landscapes to identify opportunities for differentiation and sustainable advantage.

- Help brainstorm and evaluate strategic levers to create "unfair advantages" for new ventures, including potential collaborations with corporate partners.

Feasibility & Financial Analysis:

- Perform market sizing, trend analysis, and competitive benchmarking to assess market attractiveness and viability of new concepts.

- Support preliminary financial modeling and scenario planning for early-stage ventures.

Technology & Innovation Research:

- Research and evaluate relevant emerging technologies and tools (e.g., AI, automation platforms) that can enhance a venture's operational efficiency, customer experience, or competitive posture.

- Support planning for the strategic integration of innovative technologies into new business models.

Presentation & Content Development:

- Synthesize research findings and strategic recommendations into clear, concise, and compelling presentations and internal documents for TechNexus stakeholders.

- Develop narratives and content to articulate new venture value propositions and market opportunities.
