Dealroom.co, the global data platform and source of record for startups, high-growth companies, venture capital, and technology ecosystems, today announced a new investment led by Indico Capital Partners, with participation from Rabobank and existing investors Beringea, Shoe Investments, and Knight Capital.
Founded in Amsterdam in 2013, Dealroom.co has become a trusted provider of market intelligence on startups, innovation, and venture capital activity worldwide. Its platform leverages advanced data science and real-time tracking to deliver deep insights into funding rounds, valuations, business models, and emerging trends. Dealroom empowers decision-makers — from investors and corporates to governments and ecosystem leaders — to track millions of companies, identify opportunities, source deals, and make data-driven decisions that shape the future of global innovation.
Dealroom's differentiation lies in its mission to accelerate innovation through data transparency, and ecosystem collaboration, to unlock hard-to-find data. By working directly with governments, investors, and more than 100 tech ecosystems worldwide, Dealroom delivers unique, global, and proprietary coverage that goes far beyond traditional market data. This approach enables real-time insights, robust benchmarking, and predictive intelligence on how innovation ecosystems evolve.
With this new investment, Dealroom will accelerate its international expansion, with an initial focus on scaling its presence in the US. The funding will also support significant investment in Dealroom's proprietary data assets, AI-driven intelligence, and product capabilities. Together, these efforts will further strengthen Dealroom's position as the source of record for innovation ecosystem intelligence and support its long-term ambition to map the world's tech ecosystems with greater depth, accuracy, and impact.
"Dealroom is the source of record for startups, innovation, high-growth companies, venture capital, and tech ecosystems worldwide. Data on tech and innovation has never been more crucial. At Dealroom, we proudly support the world's top investors, corporates, and government policymakers in data-driven decision making. More than 100 tech ecosystems globally now trust Dealroom to help measure and showcase their tech ecosystem growth — from Austin to Astana, from New York to Nairobi. But we're also just getting started. This new funding enables us to build on that momentum and further expand how we map the world's tech ecosystems."
"We are very happy to welcome Dealroom into our portfolio. Their commitment to the Portuguese ecosystem goes far beyond data; it's about a physical presence. By establishing an office and a dedicated team right here in Lisbon, they've become an integral part of our tech community. What sets Dealroom apart is their unique combination of AI-driven, real-time data and a powerful network of partnerships. They offer predictive intelligence rather than just historical reporting. Our investment underscores our confidence in their technology and their mission to move the industry forward by providing the most robust and actionable insights available to investors globally."
