Intel 64 Fund
By: G. Felda Hardymon and Ann Leamon
Abstract
Laila Partridge of Intel's Corporate Business Development group has been charged to create a special investment fund to speed the adoption of a new chip architecture. The last architecture upgrade, from 16 to 32 bits, had needed almost a decade to become fully adopted. How can this fund speed the adoption process? How can Partridge structure it to avoid the common tension in corporate venture capital between financial return and strategic goal?
