Cyndx allows you to identify opportunities who may be ready to sell using our Projected to Raise feature. This is a broad term used throughout the platform to indicate that a company is potentially in need of capital. A company may be flagged as Projected-to-Raise if they are experiencing the following outcomes over the next 6-9 months:

  • Raise capital in exchange for equity

  • Be a potential acquisition target (i.e. likely to sell)

  • Preparing for an IPO

  • Goes out of business due to the lack of ability to achieve one of the above outcomes

Projected to raise is an indicator that a company is highly in need of capital and they may be likely to take their next round to funding - or be open to an exit conversation.

Identifying opportunities who may be ready to sell

  1. In the search bar, enter company(s) or concept(s)

  2. Filters can be applied as you run your Finder search
    See related article: Using Pre-filters

    1. Your search can be narrowed to return companies who may be ready to sell by clicking into the filters and toggling 'Projected to raise capital' on.

    2. In order to search for non sponsor-backed companies, change the 'Funding stage' filter to None - Angel/Seed.

  3. In the same modal, locate 'Company Type' at the top and select 'Private'.

  4. Results will display P2R opportunities who may be ready to sell.
