The National Business Incubation Association (NBIA) has formed a partnership with VC Experts Inc., the leading provider of content, data and analytics for the venture capital community.
Under the agreement, NBIA members and their client companies will receive discounted rates on VC Experts’ Web-based systems. NBIA members can purchase access to the services for their clients and the incubator at the discounted rate of $495 per year. This partnership is one of several offered to NBIA members and their client companies through the NBIA Partner Program.
“NBIA’s partners provide services our members need. These services offer solutions to incubator managers’ challenges and save them – and their clients – money,” said David Monkman, NBIA’s president & CEO.
Business incubation programs catalyze the process of starting and growing companies by providing entrepreneurs with the expertise, networks and tools they need to make their ventures successful. NBIA estimates that in 2005 alone, North American incubators assisted more than 27,000 start-up companies that provided full-time employment for more than 100,000 workers and generated annual revenue of more than $17 billion.
“VC Experts is excited to partner with NBIA to help educate incubator clients about the venture capital fundraising process. We are certain that the companies will find great value in our unique collection of industry content, data and analytics,” said Michael Ostendorff, director of sales and marketing for VC Experts.
The discounted rate provides incubators with access to VC Experts’ Encyclopedia of Private Equity & Venture Capital, the Internet’s most comprehensive collection of industry best practices, downloadable legal forms, multimedia seminars and self-paced courses. In addition, NBIA members receive access to the Valuation & Deal Term database, which reveals the post-money valuations and specific deal terms for thousands of U.S. companies that have raised venture capital. Lastly, members have access to VC Experts’ Portfolio Company Analysis Tool, a Web-based application that start-ups can use to manage company capitalization tables and model future financings and exit events in minutes.
