How to find investors for your startup

Private Equity List is an investor database for startups: 8,000+ investors in 110+ countries, including 6,300+ venture capital firms, 190+ angel investors, 290+ corporate VCs and 240+ family offices. Each profile shows the stages a firm backs, from pre-seed to Series C+, the sectors and regions it invests in, its usual check size and the partners to contact.

Start with active investors. A fund that launched a new vehicle in the last 12 months has fresh capital to deploy, and Private Equity List marks these firms as active: 740+ of them right now, listed under new VC funds. Filter by stage, industry, country and check size, shortlist 50–100 firms, and email the partner who covers your sector rather than a generic inbox.

Prefer your own tools? Export the list to Excel, Google Sheets or your CRM, or ask Claude and ChatGPT for investors through the MCP connector. The free plan shows the first page of results for any search; contacts start with Pro at $129 a month.
