Connecting the European startup ecosystem

Founded by two university students at ESSEC, SearchVentures originally started as a university wide newsletter sharing the trends and developments of the European startup ecosystem across professors and classmates.

Now SearchVentures has over 13,000 weekly readers, and is actively partnered with two of the largest startup news sources in Europe with a collective audience of over a million readers.
The team has also actively become a venture scout for several investors in Europe, with a data-driven approach to deal flow.
