Why Consulting Firms Are Launching Their Own Venture Studios

Lucas and Luna explore the rise of venture studios inside top consulting firms. They break down how firms like McKinsey and BCG are building startups from scratch alongside clients, moving beyond traditional advisory into equity-backed co-creation. The episode digs into the economics: why a venture studio model lets firms capture upside that billable hours never could, how it changes risk profiles, and what it means for consultants who suddenly become entrepreneurs. Specific examples include McKinsey's QuantumBlack spin-out and BCG's partnership with a climate-tech studio. The hosts also address the tension between consulting objectivity and the long-term commitment of building a company. A fresh look at how the industry is quietly reshaping its business model. #VentureStudio #Consulting #McKinsey #BCG #QuantumBlack #BusinessModel #Entrepreneurship #Equity #CoCreation #StartupStudio #ProfessionalServices #Innovation #BusinessStrategy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ServiceBusinessTalks #LucasAndLuna #ManagementConsulting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
