Venture Capital Support
We provide comprehensive support to venture capital (VC) firms across the investment life cycle. We help them monitor existing and new markets for consumer behaviour and economic/demographic changes, helping them with real-time market-pulse tracking and sourcing quality targets to invest in.
Our deal-sourcing services help VC clients identify and maintain a pipeline of potentially interesting startups, helping them have increased visibility of startups in the space (95% visibility of attractive companies) and pre-empt investment opportunities. We also conduct VC due diligence by creating diligence frameworks and conducting research, ensuring faster turnaround on deal decision (40-50% reduction in time taken to close a deal).
Our portfolio monitoring and advisory services enable VC firms to track performance of portfolio companies and funds periodically, conduct strategic portfolio reviews and prepare bespoke presentation material for investor reporting with limited partners.
Acuity Knowledge Partners’ VC domain team is experienced in working with all market data sources relevant for VC clients including Preqin, FactSet, CB Insights, Crunchbase, SimilarWeb, App Annie, Venture intelligence, PitchBook and sector-specific sources.
