Where to start?

Once you finish making your PrivCo account, you will have a breadth of information at your fingertips. From investment insights, to recent M&A Deals, to Top Industry Coverage, there are lots of places you can begin. 

Advanced Search: Companies

On the left hand side of your screen, click on the magnifying glass icon to access the advanced search feature. From here, you can filter by location, keywords, industry, etc. Once you find the company you’re looking for, get a snapshot of the company’s financials, an overview of their mission, sources of funding and deals that they are involved in! 

Advanced Search: Investors

Have an interview coming up? Impress that senior VP with knowledge on the latest investment decisions of their company. This can be a great way to brainstorm questions to ask at the end of your interview, as well as prepare you for that age old interview question, “So, tell me about something you’ve read about our company in the news recently?”
