DESCRIPTION: The National Institutes of Health – Office of Extramural (SEED) intends to procure the services of a contractor to provide a Platform Enterprise Subscription. The online platform should provide data and research covering the private capital markets, including venture capital, private equity and M&A transactions related to current and potential NIH SBIR/STTR funded companies. NIH has been using Pitchbook for some years and the subscriptions need to be renewed to keep the services uninterrupted.

PitchBook provides private market data on venture capital, private equity, and mergers and acquisitions. NIH-wide access will enable NIH extramural staff to conduct research on applicants and awardees for the purposes of validating self-reported financial information, conducting outcomes research on funded small businesses, and assisting companies to develop commercialization plans that take into account the market landscape. The enterprise license will also assist the NIH technology transfer community, who can leverage this information to more effectively market NIH-owned intellectual property.

What is unique to PitchBook is the depth of data they have on private companies and the deals and funding they receive. NIH staff performs due diligence on applicants and portfolio companies on a regular basis in an effort to fund the most promising projects and provide the right direction for support for companies in early stages. PitchBook provides a level of detail into a company’s financial status that includes financing histories, series terms, cap tables, revenue figures, executives, and private investors.

It is the intent of The National Institutes of Health, Office of the Director/Office of Extramural Research/Small Business Education and Entrepreneurial Development (SEED) to purchase a renewal for PitchBook Enterprise Subscription for a 12-month base period starting September 22, 2022 and ending September 21, 2023.
