  3. In the Words of a Business Librarian "PrivCo is a major development in the world of business research. Up till now, lengthy reports were only available on publicly held companies, which sell stock on exchanges. PrivCo changes all that.  PrivCo does its own unique research that provides data which goes far beyond what has previously been available about privately owned companies.   Whether you're working on an assignment, a research paper, or a job interview, for a major private company, PrivCo's got you covered.“ University Library: Houston, Texas

Our Market: Over 90% of Major Corporations Are Private • There are over 150,000 firms operating in the United States alone that bring in over $10 million in annual revenues • Yet business databases focus almost exclusively on the same 15,000 publicly-traded companies. • PrivCo is dedicated to producing intelligent, in-depth business and financial research on the other 90% of major business. Private Public

"There were a lot of venture capitalists and entrepreneurs that really have been waiting for Facebook to go public," says Sam Hamadeh, the CEO of PrivCo, a research firm that follows privately held companies. "Everybody's been told just wait 'til May 18, Facebook is going to pop, everybody will get very excited about it ... and then you have the opportunity to go public this summer with that halo effect."

  10. Major News Sources Rely on PrivCo for Private Company Financial Data

  11. Major Institutions Rely on PrivCo for Private Company Financial Data

  12. Sources: Citing PrivCo “I am doing research using my university's access to the PrivCo database, and I have found it to be immensely useful in that regard. I must thank you for the excellent product. In particular, I find the database to be helpful in locating information that is often hard to come across in regards to private Chinese companies. I have come across one piece of information given, from what I can tell, only on your data file and nowhere else. I am trying to corroborate that piece of information before writing and using it, citing PrivCo as my source, of course. I was wondering, would it be possible for me to learn what the ultimate source of a particular piece of information was?” The Wharton School, Student Research Assistant
