Our take
In recent years, the demand for partnership roles at tech companies has witnessed a significant surge. However, a challenge persists: companies lack a secure means to cultivate relationships without divulging excessive data. Addressing this issue, Crossbeam positions itself as the "LinkedIn for partnerships".
By offering an account mapping service, Crossbeam allows users to gain a comprehensive understanding of their shared accounts. Pioneering this service, the platform boasts a user base of over 17,000 companies, attributing its remarkable growth to a network effect fueled by customer recommendations. With well over $110M in funding raised to date, Crossbeam's financial support underscores the robustness of its services.
The company is poised for continued substantial growth, driven by the ongoing network effect and strategic acquisitions. As part of its strategic vision, Crossbeam aims to expand its team, a move expected to prove invaluable in the years ahead.
