Venture Capital Access Online is a venture capital and private equity directory covering 7,670+ investment firms worldwide. Every firm is profiled by investment stage, industry preference, geographic focus, financing type, check size range, and capital under management, with 56,020+ named GP-side executives attached.
Three resources sit on one dataset: the downloadable VCPro Database for building targeted outreach lists, free online directories of investors, advisors and limited partners, and daily coverage of funding rounds, buyouts and new fund closes. Published independently since 1998.
Independently researched and published continuously since 1998
Three connected resources for fundraising, deal sourcing, and market research: the downloadable venture capital database, free online investor and LP directories, and daily private market news.
A searchable, offline venture capital and private equity database holding in-depth profiles of over 7,670 firms worldwide. Filter investors by geography, industry, financing type, and investment stage, then reach the executives who actually make the decisions.
Browse curated online directories of active venture capital firms, private equity firms, corporate finance advisors, and limited partners. Search by location or sector focus to shortlist qualified funding partners and approach them directly, at no cost.
Track global funding rounds, private equity buyouts, new fund launches, and executive moves. See where capital is flowing and spot emerging trends before they are widely reported.
Three things separate a working research tool from a static list: filters that combine, contacts with names attached, and enough fund data to disqualify a firm before you write to it.
Combine criteria across industry, financing type, investment stage, and geography instead of filtering on one field at a time. A seed-stage SaaS company in Germany gets a genuinely short list, not 7,670 rows to read. Export the shortlist to Excel or CSV and work it from there.
Every profile carries named decision-makers: 56,020+ executives and 55,650+ executive email addresses across the venture capital and private equity directory. Contacts are researched in-house and re-verified for each annual edition, so outreach reaches the partner who can actually take the meeting.
Each record sets out the PE firm data that decides fit: capital under management (AUM), minimum and maximum investment size, preferred financing types, and the stages a firm backs, from seed and Series A through growth equity and buyouts. Screen on check size first and you stop pitching funds that were never going to write your cheque.
Both firm types share one profile structure, so a single query can run across the whole private market instead of forcing you to work two separate lists.
| Profile attribute | Venture capital firms | Private equity firms |
|---|---|---|
| Investment stages recorded | Seed, startup, early stage, Series A to C, expansion | Growth equity, buyout, mezzanine, recapitalisation, turnaround |
| Ownership typically sought | Minority stake alongside founders | Majority or outright control |
| Target company profile | Pre-revenue through fast-growing | Profitable and cash-generating |
| Check size field | Minimum and maximum investment per round | Minimum and maximum investment per transaction |
| Capital under management (AUM) | Recorded per firm | Recorded per firm |
| Named GP contacts | General partners, principals, associates | Managing directors, partners, deal teams |
| Free listing to browse | Investor directory | Investor directory |
Sector, stage, geography, financing type, check size, and AUM are all filterable fields, so any combination of them can be used to build a shortlist in the VCPro Database.

Scope note: profiles record firm-level criteria — AUM, check size range, stage, sector and geography — together with named GP and LP contacts. They do not publish fund-level performance figures such as IRR or TVPI, or uncalled dry powder. New fund closes are covered editorially in the fund news feed.
