The University of
Manchester Intellectual Properties (www.umip.com) has created "Investor Search," a
specialist search engine for anyone seeking funding or particular
knowledge of a company in the Venture Capital (VC) community. Investor
Search is unique because in just one simple step, it allows users to
search the content of all the websites for the 300 venture capital and
private equity firms operating in the UK, or to search the websites of
350 venture capital firms in the USA, or to search the web sites of 1400
other VCs internationally.
This
site indexes the contents of these 2000+ websites that operate in
different regions of the world. For instance, if you are looking for an
investor with a specific investment track record, or an investor with a
portfolio investment in a particular area, this search engine is a very
simple solution to identify candidate investors.
The site is completely free to use and
requires no registration or log-in. It is as simple as using Google, but
with the rest of the internet content ignored.
As a specialist search engine, it is believed
to be the first of its kind.
UMIP
is a Limited Company wholly owned by The University of Manchester, with
the specific role of commercialization of the intellectual property of
the university.
