Receive complete market maps to benchmark targets

For teams that have a specific solution or target company in mind that want to be sure that they identify the most relevant companies. We help teams cut through the marketing and compare companies on core features to ultimately select companies that come closest to their ideal target. Searching for those companies is often difficult as the market segments you are looking for are highly specific but undefined in existing datasets. Our team is experienced systematically breaking down market segments and assessing companies based on your criteria.

"Working with Venture IQ allows us to gain insights on new investment themes at an accelerated level, which helps us focus our team's efforts. VIQs market maps and analysis provide a great overview of companies active in our investment themes and point us toward the most interesting ones."

Target interviews and introducation

Obtain deeper insights through interview-based insights with selected companies. Venture IQ performs initial conversations on your behalf with management teams of targeted companies to obtain insights into the state of technology, commercial traction, an initial assessment of the management, as well as gauge their partnering & funding appetite. In case of mutual interest, such conversations can be used for a direct introduction and a first step towards engagement. A company deepdive usually flows naturally as a project extension after market mapping or target selection projects

Deal sourcing as a service

To get the most from proactive deal sourcing, you need to continuously challenge your team to stay on top of new companies and technologies. Venture IQ can be the natural extension of your investment team, so you can focus on the deals that matter. We support many of our clients on a continuous basis to create a constant flow of quality leads and proprietary market insights.

Working with Venture IQ and using Catalist helps us to find the non-obvious results, unlocking value for our company. The team is fast, accurate and flexible.
