Objective and Scope:

The client, a global investment management firm, wanted to shortlist start-ups in the Infratech space. For this, it wanted Benori’s support to conduct research on these companies for:

• Exploring potential partnership and investment opportunities. The investment was to be made through a dedicated fund set up by the client
• Gaining a technological advantage for its portfolio companies through services offered by the shortlisted firms

Approach:

We created a database of relevant companies using specific keywords, and then filtered them using parameters such as revenue, employee strength, funding stage, customers, geographical presence, investors, and financials. These parameters were applied using databases and secondary sources. The selected companies were then mapped to relevant industry verticals and sub-segments, and brief profiles were prepared.

Impact:

The study helped the client in:

• Getting a list of 35 established start-up companies in the Infratech space, along with their brief profiles
• Reaching out to these companies for potential partnership and investment opportunities
