Benchmarking Companies for a Global Venture Capital Firm

Objective & Scope

The client, a large, global venture capital firm, wanted to optimize the shortlisting of start-ups that could be profitable investment opportunities. For this, it sought Benori’s support in: Tracking growth indicators of 450+ companies in the enterprise technology and consumer space Highlighting outliers that could be explored for investment

Approach

Benori built an automated analytics pipeline that aggregated data from multiple digital and financial sources, including Crunchbase (funding, valuation, investors, employee growth), LinkedIn (hiring velocity), SimilarWeb (web traffic), and news APIs (mentions and sentiment) into Azure SQL, orchestrated via Azure Data Factory. Feature engineering derived key growth signals, including year-on-year (YoY) changes in employees, funding, valuation, traffic, hiring velocity, and sentiment trends, which were combined into a composite growth potential score. Anomaly detection flagged outperforming peers, and insights were visualized through a dashboard, enabling rapid identification of high-growth companies and emerging investment opportunities backed by real-time data.

Impact

The exercise enabled the client to: Make faster, data-driven investment decisions by automating start-up monitoring Highlight high-growth opportunities through a real-time analytics dashboard

Objective & Scope

The client, a US-based investment firm, wanted to have an in-depth understanding of the four segments of the Indian education system to identify investment opportunities. They wanted Benori’s assistance in conducting a thorough analysis at both the national and city levels for the following segments: Test Prep K-12 Supplementary Coaching K-12 Higher Education

Approach

We conducted extensive secondary and primary research to understand the four segments and gathered data at a national level. For city-level analysis, we first identified top players, schools, and colleges, and then profiled them. The profiling was followed by a benchmarking activity in all four segments to help the client understand the current scenario.

Impact

The study enabled the client to make decisions for organic/inorganic investments while: Understanding the most prominent players in test prep and supplementary coaching segments and their hub locations and key offerings, along with their rankings Assessing the top K-12 schools, their fee structure, locations across cities, key offerings, and top private higher education universities/colleges, their course structure, number of students and faculty, and other key information

Objective & Scope

The client, a provider of digital transformation solutions for financial enterprises, wanted to understand the business model of one of its competitors, a US-based global fintech company, which is a leading digital solutions provider in the BFSI sector. The objective of the study was to capture strategic information, including funding details, product portfolio, pricing strategies, and licensing models, to enable the client to gain a competitive advantage in the market.

Approach

We started by conducting extensive secondary research to get the desired information. We then reached out to stakeholders at various companies, including the competitor's partner firms across varied locations, to fill information gaps. A triangulation approach was used to deduce some insights later, ensuring the information was readily available.

Impact

The detailed analysis and profiling helped the client in: Learning best practices and using them to improve its existing processes and overcome challenges Increasing sales through better client acquisitions
