PitchBook

(PitchBook)

PitchBook is a private equity and venture capital database covering a wide range of companies as well as startups. It can be used for competitor research to help identify companies that offer similar products or services. Researchers can also track entire private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) lifecycles from fund initiation to company exits, private mergers and acquisitions (MA) transactions.

Important: PitchBook has made changes with its access management. In order to access PitchBook, you have to use the URL https://my.pitchbook.com/loginAction.do?action=sso from now on.

  • Users can download 10 lines of data per day and 25 lines per month. 1 download = 1 row of data on an Excel file.
  • Screen capturing, scraping data, using crawlers or other forms of data mining are prohibited. There is nothing we can do to enable more downloads; nor is there a workaround. This restriction is in place for all of PitchBook's academic clients.
  • Try working with the Pivot Table function in PitchBook: downloading 1 Pivot Table equals downloading 1 line of data.
  • The use of PitchBook mobile apps is not part of the academic license.

PitchBook is offering an extended – but not unlimited – access for researchers. Eligible are users from level PhD Candidate and upwards. The additional fee would need to be covered through your funding. If you are interested, please contact searchandfindunisg.ch.

Pleas take note

  • This offer is only available from level PhD Candidate and upwards; this is not possible for students on Bachelor or Master Level.
  • Fee: the Add On costs USD 2'500 per year; this fee would need to be covered by you.
  • This Add On does not give unlimited access to PitchBook: the download cap is 2'000 rows of data per month.
