 Hey there, Chad Bondra here for Ohio University Libraries. In this quick video, I'm going to show you how to find companies who have received venture capital or private equity investment by state and by industry using a database called PrivCo. So here you go. So when you first get to PrivCo, you want to sign up, use your Ohio email address, and you'll log in. When you log in as me here, once again, I'm using the password I created with PrivCo using my account here, and when you get to PrivCo, you can use PrivCo typically just to search for a privately held company, such as Evernote, one of my favorites, and then get company financials for that company. But for this video, we're actually going to show you how to search for VC fundings by state in order to get an idea of where money is going for privately held companies in the state of Ohio, for example. So we just choose Ohio here and do search, and we get a nice list of companies here, and we're going to find an example here. We're going to look at Privedare, I guess, that's why we're going to pronounce it. And we get information about the company as well as some of their investors. We can also click on one of the investors in here and get additional information about what these investors have also invested in. So here we have Microsoft Ventures. We can see that they prefer seed in early stage and mid stage investment, and then we get some information on deals in which they've targeted companies. Now we can also go in and search by industry. So in this case, I'm searching for internet companies in Ohio. And because I don't know the industry name, I'm just going to search for software here as a keyword in the phrase there, and do a search here. So instead of the almost 1,000 companies we find for Ohio, now we find 171 companies that have to do with software, internet, or other e-commerce kind of things in Ohio that have received VC funding. And you'll notice it's sorted by date, so it gives you a good idea of where you can find information on VC funding and the companies that have received it in Ohio. So in addition to finding funding sources and where people are putting their money into private companies, this can also be a good tool to identify places where you might want to submit your resume for a job application. Ideally, if the places have money, they've received funding or recent funding through venture capital or private equity or whatever. They might be hiring, so it's a good way to kind of find places where you might want to send your resume to see if they do have jobs available. So hopefully this helps you take care and good luck with your research.
