Today we published the database of funds for free. This is currently the largest, most complete and most relevant dataset in the world. It contains more than 500,000 data cells about 26,000+ venture funds and more than 30,000 employees who make investment decisions, including the rules of their email formation (we cannot share emails directly because of GDPR). We will update investor profiles on our website on a weekly basis, and this database on a quarterly basis.

- scherbak 6y agoWe don't see any intrinsic value in owning the dataset. We are working on a tool that optimizes the search of investors and saves dozens of hours. We are happy to share the dataset with those entrepreneurs who know what they need and what type of an investor they are searching for.

- scherbak 6y agoNo, that's fine. We don't consider this as academic purposes.
- igorkraw 6y agoWhat is the reason to ban academic research?
