Hi there, 

FML is right. 

We signed a big office lease in NYC in January 2020.

Now we've got a really nice, mostly empty office (semi-busy 2x per week).

So I’ve got an idea.

Are there any startups building products that could use the CB Insights API and data who'd want to work out of our office at a discounted rate?

You'd get:

• Space

• Access to our team/me

• Our data

• Maybe some promo in our newsletter

• Access to enterprises & investors (if relevant)

Some sectors/spaces folks are using or could use our data in:

• Recruiting

• Sales intelligence

• Supply chain risk

• Private stock secondary markets

• Investor tools

• Tech/IT procurement

• ABM

• Alt data to hedge funds

And many more.

WDYT?

Notes:

1. This is not a co-working space. This is for cos who'd build on top of our data.

2. If you're a real estate broker seeing this, I don't want to talk to you about you helping us sublet our space. Please don't reach out to me. Thank you. 

Finally, if you’re not a startup but interested in bringing our data into your commercial applications or internal systems (like Salesforce for example), you can sign up here.

You + CBI

Emerging fund managers and family offices have often told us that they want access to CB Insights data and research like market maps.

But given their team size, our pricing put the product out of reach.

Well, it’s not out of reach any longer.

We’ve created a limited availability single-seat subscription license for family offices & emerging fund managers (think "micro VCs" and solo capitalists).   

We’re starting by making this available to a limited group of family offices and emerging fund managers.
