Updated

  • Venture intelligence (co-investors analysis): we fixed our graph analytics feature for you to identify 'who the investors commonly co-invest with?'

    • Due to the large amount of companies, some queries may take 1-2 minutes to load

    • Collectively, 995 investors (with funding rounds data) made a total of 16,650 investments, out of which were the same 2,154 unique companies, across the very-early stage, early stage, growth stage, and late stage

    • Out of the 995 investors, the co-investments were co-led by 811 unique co-investors within their networks

    • Period of investments made: June 1983 to September 2020
