Why are biopharma and finance companies switching to DealForma?

"DealForma is a Better Deal Database"

We keep hearing from business developers who have tried other databases and DealForma. They are switching to DealForma because of the deal-focused filters and the ability to quickly pull relevant deal comps knowing the content is high-quality. This saves them time when creating reports because the information is verified and up-to-date.

Intuitive, Modern Interface

You know that biopharma business development is full of complex terminology. But you shouldn’t have to remember how a database codes things. DealForma designed its platform from the ground up to make finding the most relevant information fast and easy. DealForma’s granular filters give you the confidence in working with the right data.

Intentional Biopharma Deal Curation

Analysts at DealForma have experience reading thousands of deal and funding announcements and company filings. Teams assigned to each segment look for key terms to separate out from a noisy news flow. And they do this manually, every day, so you can quickly filter through decades of carefully curated, relevant transaction profiles.
