Add Your Startup to Crunchbase

It’s good corporate hygiene to have an up-to-date profile in Crunchbase – prospective investors, employees, and partners use it to learn more about a company when doing their due diligence.  It’s also a profile you want to claim to protect your online presence, just as you would want to lock down social media handles to avoid another company claiming it first (and thereby creating confusion or brand dilution).

With Crunchbase, any registered user (with a social network connected) can add or edit profile pages. If you don’t have a user account yet, you can register for a user account here. Once you’ve logged in and authenticated via a social network, you can visit your existing profile by finding it through the top search bar.
