Case Study: MVP Ventures achieves faster, smarter deal sourcing with CB Insights

The MVP That’s Turning Data Into a Force Multiplier

MVP Ventures is a venture capital firm focused on co-investing alongside top lead VCs, but in a highly competitive market it needed a faster, more efficient way to identify and prioritize the best startup opportunities. To support its data-driven investment process, MVP Ventures turned to CB Insights as a foundational data source, using its startup intelligence, financing history, Mosaic Score, and CB Insights API.

CB Insights helped MVP Ventures build a machine-human deal engine that narrowed thousands of potential targets into the most promising companies, improved diligence, and triggered faster action on new deals through alerts and real-time tracking. The result was greater efficiency for MVP’s 10-person team, which could operate like a much larger organization, while also strengthening its ability to get in early and invest alongside Tier 1 leads; 88% of its investments were alongside a Tier 1 lead and 62% were led by a Midas List partner.
