Guide to Venture Capital & Private Equity Firms
2025 Edition
This twenty-ninth edition of the Guide to Venture Capital & Private Equity Firms, Domestic & International is a comprehensive database of 3,000 of the most active venture capital and private equity firms operating domestically and internationally today. This new edition has been extensively updated, offering valuable, current, and detailed information to individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses worldwide.
The Guide to Venture Capital & Private Equity Firms is organized into four major sections: Domestic Firms, Canadian Firms, International Firms, and National & State Assocations, each of which are listed alphabetically by name. All domestic, Canadian, and international profiles include: a mission statement, industry group preferences, portfolio companies, geographic preferences, average and minimum investments, and investment criteria. Each firm’s partners are listed with extensive background information, such as education (including degree and school), professional background (including previous positions and companies), and directorships held. The specificity of both the firm and its partners add to the value of each firm’s profile. Information for firms headquartered overseas includes name, phone, fax, email and website.
As with previous editions, this 2025 edition includes a User Guide, followed by two industry reports that offer insight into the current state of this dynamic industry segment: KPMG Enterprises—Venture Pulse Q3 2024, Global Analysis of Venture Funding; and KPMG—Pulse of Fintech H1’ 24. Highlights include:
- VC investment in the U.S. dipped in Q3 2024, although investment in artificial intelligence (AI) remained strong.
- Despite the overall dip, deal sizes bumped upwards.
- A few IPOs occurred, but M&A activity remained curtailed.
- Fintech investment in the Americas showed signs of weakening, despite large deal volumes.
This guide also contains five valuable indexes:
- College/University Index: Offers an alphabetical list of more than 1,000 educational institutions worldwide—and the venture capital executives who attended them. Each listing includes the reference number of the affiliated VC firm of the executive listed.
- Executive Index: An alphabetical list by last name of nearly 8,000 key partners and the listing number of their affiliated firm.
- Geographic Index: Organizes all firms by state for domestic listings and by country for international listings.
- Industry Preference Index: Alphabetically lists the more than 850 industry segments and the names of the firms that invest in them.
- Portfolio Companies Index: Alphabetically lists the 50,000 companies that received venture capital from a listed firm, and is referenced to that listing.
