Does anyone have figures on how many new searchers are joining the Search Fund ecosystem annually?

I see that SearchFunder lists just under 35k members. I'd be curious to know how many of those members joined in the past 12 months?

Thanks Cory. I was with Newton a few weeks back at INSEAD in Paris. :) Will reach out.

It's true the Stanford and IESE studies shine some light on the growth in number of search funds but it doesn't give much of an indication on how many searchers are in their exploration phase / considering search. They're also very much focused on traditional searchers over self-funded and single sponsor.

Jake Nicholson has compiled this for Australia. He's at INSEAD.



Newton Campos for Brazil and Europe maybe? He's at IESE.

And the annual Stanford study would have directional data for the USA.
