“Collected Intelligence has repeatedly proven to be a big asset in our efforts to peel the onion on the companies we invest in. We’ve gained tremendous insight into management teams and businesses of our portfolio companies thanks to the work Collected Intelligence has done. Whether revealing or reassuring, their research has been an invaluable complement to all the work we do in-house.”

“Since Collected Intelligence was referred to Simplex by our lead venture capital partner, it has been an integral part of our recruiting process for key executive positions - including VPs and C-level hires. Collected Intelligence has consistently delivered broad perspectives on potential hires, even under very tight deadlines.”

— Ellen R. Hitt, VP, Human Capital, Simplex Healthcare

“Collected Intelligence has been helping Cross Creek Capital evaluate the management teams of potential private portfolio companies since our inception in 2004. Very little public information is typically available regarding private company managements and avoiding difficult or dishonest executives is critical in any investment but especially when investing in private companies where the outcome is highly dependent on a few executives and financial controls are less mature. Robinson and his team have uncovered some very disturbing information in several diligence cases and helped us avoid investments that would have led to material portfolio losses. While even the best management team does not insure a good outcome in venture investing, avoiding bad teams really improves your odds. We believe Collected Intelligence's services are a critical piece of our diligence process to protect ourselves and our clients.”

— Karey Barker, CFA, Managing Director, Cross Creek Capital
