We currently have a need for data on Venture Capital and Private Equity investments to enable us to produce analysis on investment trends, both into London as a city, but also at a global level to allow comparisons across different geographies (countries and cities). This data is used by London & Partners to inform various sector 'propositions' and messaging materials, along with the generation of positive PR coverage for London. Data on companies receiving VC/PE investment & funding is also used by our teams located in offices in our key target markets (namely in the US, Canada, China, India, France & Germany) as a lead generation source - providing them with ability to generate lists of target companies who have received investment and may be considering international expansion, along with providing intelligence and contact information at these individual target companies. It is also used to identify fast growing London based companies who are receiving investment and to research investors & investor portfolios. The service is currently being delivered by an existing provider. Individuals in each overseas office currently have a user licence to log-in to the service, along with the Research & Insights & PR/Comms teams in our main London office. 5 Specification Our key data requirements can be summarised as follows: 1) Data & Trend Analysis The successful source must be able to provide data on VC (and PE) investment deals/rounds into individual companies. The source must also provide online tools which allow the ability to analyse the data to identify trends over time. Data coverage should cover all global markets - but at a minimum must cover the UK, France, Germany, US, Canada, China, India. The source should have the ability to be able to break down trends by: • The location of the company receiving investment/investment round/stage. The ability to be able to analyse data at both a country and a 'city' level is an essential requirement. • The sector/industry of the company receiving investment (please provide more detail on the sector classification scheme used by your platform in your response) • Size and source of those investments - with the ability to view this & switch between different currencies (USD, GBP, EUR should be covered) 2) Lead Generation: The source should also be able to be used by our trade & growth teams for lead generation purposes. This means to be able to identify fast growing companies in London & Partners core target markets (UK, US, Canada, France, Germany, China & India must be covered at a mimimum) who have received investment, and may be looking to expand their operations internationally. For these companies, profiling information including name, sector, investment history, address, office locations, size (turnover & employees) and contact information is required to enable engagement.
