PrivCo

The PrivCo database provides extensive private company financial information for over 500,000 companies.  One important feature of PrivCo is the ability to understand how private companies raise capital in all its details. In fact, financing and acquisitions transactions are a chief source of concrete data on private companies, in the absence of the published quarterly information required by the SEC for publicly held corporations.  PrivCo includes extensive venture capital, private equity and angel investor information.  M&A deal formation can be searched by company name, geography, and deal type.

Whether searching for information for investors or companies, PrivCo allows information to be filtered in a variety of ways.  The user can search by specific investors or companies.  The user can also build lists of companies by searching on geography, industry type, and in the case of venture capital investing, type of investor (angel, family office, hedge fund, etc.) or deal round, which is funding usually provided on the same date by an investor or group of investors.

The private company information is fairly detailed with a fair amount of financials, detailed descriptions, business overviews and news. PrivCo gets this information from harvesting and editing news reports, and from government filings, as well as directly from the companies themselves.
