Bill Haskell leads Innventure's systematic approach to founding, funding, and operating technology companies that solve major market needs. With over 30 years of experience in company creation and development, Bill has pioneered a data-driven methodology that achieves an extraordinary >80% success rate—dramatically inverting the traditional 70-80% failure rate of venture-backed startups.

What sets Bill apart is his scientific approach to entrepreneurship, developed through decades of studying the DNA of successful and failed companies. From his foundation as an applied mathematician working on space-borne imaging platforms to serving as CEO, COO, and board member for more than a dozen of public and private companies globally, Bill brings rigorous analytical methods to the art of company building. His journey from rural Maine, where self-reliance meant learning to drive at age 8, to ringing the NASDAQ closing bell as CEO of a public company, provides compelling narratives about grit, determination, and systematic innovation.

Having built and scaled multiple technology companies across diverse sectors—from medical devices achieving FDA approval in 18 months to sustainable technologies transforming entire industries—Bill delivers insights that transform how organizations approach innovation, investment, and value creation. Whether addressing Fortune 500 executives seeking to monetize stranded R&D assets, institutional investors exploring alternative models, or entrepreneurs looking to beat the odds, Bill provides frameworks that turn breakthrough technologies into market-leading companies.

Availability
