This paper presents a study about the implementation of the Portfolio Management Project approach to support the selection process of starups to be invested in the context of Corporate Venture Capital (CVC), by a large company in the software industry. The research was guided by Action Research methodology. The study is based on the literature that suggests the Portfolio Management Project approach to be the appropriate guide line in the process of analysis and targeting of startups for investments by CVC. And, in spite of being based on only one case, and in the initial phase of the portfolio creation, the study can help researchers and consultants dedicated to issues related CVC on the challenge of managing investment portfolios.
