For Innovators
A structured route into the operational environments of some of the world’s most recognised organisations.
L Marks programmes connect innovators with organisations that have identified a specific operational or strategic challenge and are committed to deploying a solution.
What participation involves
Selected innovators work directly inside the corporate partner’s business for the duration of the programme to validate their solutions against real operational challenges, with access to relevant data, internal teams, and senior decision-makers, supported by the L Marks team throughout. Programmes close with Demo Day, at which companies present their results to corporate leadership, with those showing the greatest potential considered for long-term partnerships and scaled deployment.
Are you a fit?
L Marks programmes are open to innovators at any stage of growth, from early-stage startups to high-growth scaleups and established companies. Each programme is shaped by the challenge a corporate partner wants to solve, which means eligibility criteria vary. What stays consistent is the requirement for market-ready solutions and a clear fit with the problem at hand.
How selection works
Our scouting team identifies candidates through active search across our global network and events, supported by proprietary technology. We assess more than 10,000 companies each year across 81 countries. Every programme also carries an open call for applications: innovators can register and apply directly through The Bridge, our programme platform. Candidates are assessed against the specific corporate brief, with scouting and applications reviewed together to build the strongest possible cohort for each of the identified challenges.
