Company Search finds organizations that fit your technology or research. Paste an abstract, a patent, a few keywords, or a company name, and FirstIgnite returns matching companies with a short explanation of why each one fits.
Watch: how to use Company Search
What you can use it for
Finding licensees for a technology
Finding companies to sponsor research
Finding employers for recruiting, or foundations and companies for philanthropy and fundraising
Finding competitors or companies similar to one you already know
Two ways to search
Matching search (the default): describe what you're looking for and FirstIgnite matches companies to it. Each result gets a relevance score and an explanation of the match.
Traditional Search: a standard search with exact filters, such as name, location, industry, size, and revenue. Use it when you already know what kind of company you want. It doesn't score or explain matches.
What you can do with the results
Open any company to see its full profile, then save companies to a list, export them, or send them to your CRM. Every search you run is saved on the History tab so you can come back to it later.
