Highline Beta

We meet you, our corporate partners, wherever you are in your innovation journey. Whether it’s seeking to identify new opportunities, validating those in-market, or making the decision to build solutions in house, spin out new ventures, or partner with startups through a corporate accelerator, we can help.

We are a hybrid corporate venture studio + VC firm that evolves the traditional management consulting model to turn ideas into action, not just strategize in the clouds. We invest alongside our corporate partners to make success real, not theoretical.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Corporate Venture Studio Client Logo

Together with American Family Insurance, we validated, built, and launched Relay platform as a spin-out startup.

Read Case Study

Relay began as a collaboration between our innovation team and Highline Beta. We realized the potential Relay held to raise efficiencies and effectiveness for our whole industry and spun it off. Now we are excited to witness the rapid market adoption of this elegant — and independent — cloud-based solution. There is no question complex risk transfers, in reinsurance or insurance, can benefit from the boost into modernity that Relay offers.
