What motivated us to launch dealroom.co

A redesign of corporate finance advisory
Adoption of technology in VC industry
Tech giants are emerging more rapidly
Universe of potential buyers is diversifying
10 years in banking motivated us to rethink the corporate finance service model and the way it is best delivered
Venture capital has started to embrace software to identify opportunities, connect LPs with GPs, and more
Investment interest can come from unexpected corners (corporates, super angels, investor clubs, micro funds). Lines between LPs and GPs are blurring
Growth trajectories of tech companies are shortening, creating a need for real-time actionable data and intelligence
