What are the benefits of membership?

In addition to accessing the most active online network of business buyers, Searchfunder licenses research that is simply not cost effective for individuals. Access over 15,000 industry reports and 50,000 transaction financials. You also get monthly credits for contact information for your company sourcing campaign with the option to purchase more at drastically discounted rates. Searchfunder has pre-purchased access from these data providers in order to empower individual buyers and to help searchers level the playing field versus private equity.

While we are primarily a buy-side network, we do have hundreds of brokers that regularly post deals to the community.

Absolutely! We have the industry's largest intern job board. If you are considering a search, the first step is to help another business buyer so you can hit the ground running.

Do I need an MBA to join?

While a large number of our members come from dedicated programs at Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, Chicago Booth, and other top programs, searching is no longer reserved for the elite. With the current abundance of dry powder in private equity, and an increasing number of business owners reaching retirement age, good deals rarely go unfunded.

Searching for Summer '18 Internship w/ Recent Searcher-Acquired Business

Does anyone have a connection to a Searcher who recently acquired a business (within the past 12 months)? I'm a first-year student at Kellogg and would love to intern at a company that has recently been acquired by a Searcher. Kellogg offers a stipend for this so it wouldn't be much out-of-pocket for the company.

Thanks! Nick

Hey Nick, you might find helpful if you go to resources>searchfunds then there's a green button on the top right that says "See Full List". You can then sort by acquisition date to see recently acquired companies. Also, try internships under resources.

Hey Nick, I have friends in two separate search funds that acquired a business within the last year. One is based in Chicago which may work well for you. Feel free to ping me at redacted
