AlphaSights is the global leader in knowledge on demand. Founded in 2008 by Andrew Heath and Max Cartellieri, we have spent nearly two decades focused on one thing: helping our clients unlock knowledge advantage. Today, our 2,000+ professionals operate 24/7 from 9 global cities — London, New York, Hamburg, Dubai, Tokyo, Hong Kong, San Francisco, Shanghai, and Seoul — delivering frictionless access to the expert insights that power better decisions. Since our founding we have facilitated over 3 million client-expert interactions and grown at a 70% revenue CAGR between 2009 and 2023, making us one of the fastest-growing professional services firms in the world.

AlphaSights is the global leader in knowledge on demand. Since launching in 2008, we have focused relentlessly on connecting investors and business leaders with the world's foremost industry experts. With over 3 million client-expert interactions delivered and a 70% revenue CAGR from 2009 to 2023, we have grown from a London start-up into a global firm serving clients across private equity, venture capital, hedge funds, investment banking, strategy consulting, and major corporations worldwide. Our 2,000+ professionals work as one team alongside our clients — operating around the clock so that the right knowledge is always within reach.

AlphaSights provides on-demand access to knowledge through four core service lines: expert calls, surveys, deal advisors, and research. Our global team identifies and connects clients with uniquely relevant industry professionals — whatever the company, sector, geography, or topic. Clients gain the knowledge they need to make faster, better-informed decisions, backed by a proprietary platform that makes every interaction seamless, fast, and compliant. We serve the most sophisticated investors and business leaders in the world, and our entire operating model is built around one goal: their success.

We believe knowledge is the key to progress, prosperity, and creating a better future. Our mission is to equip global investors and business leaders with the knowledge that powers better decisions — and to equip our people with the skills that power successful careers. Every expert interaction we facilitate represents a step toward a world where the best ideas win and informed decisions drive meaningful progress.

Seven tenets define how we work and lead at AlphaSights: Work hard, find meaning — Success requires sustained effort. We stay committed because we believe in the impact of what we do. Obsess over others' success — Our growth derives entirely from the success we create for clients. Their outcomes are our ultimate north star. Hire great people — We seek individuals with exceptional thinking and interpersonal ability, giving them real ownership from day one. Strive for excellence — If something is worth doing, it is worth doing well. We hold ourselves to high standards and continuously improve. Keep learning, keep trialing — We approach every day with a growth mindset. Trial, error, and reflection are how we get better. Care about the long term — We prioritise what we can build for clients, colleagues, and company over the long run — not the next quarter. Enjoy the journey — We are on a long-term quest and we make sure to celebrate the wins along the way.

AlphaSights offers clients a distinctly frictionless experience: rapid expert identification, a deeply compliant access model, and a 24/7 team culture built entirely around client outcomes. Our proprietary platform reduces friction at every step — from expert discovery to scheduling to knowledge delivery. With the broadest expert network coverage across sectors and geographies, and 15+ years of institutional knowledge, we deliver consistently faster and more relevant insights than any alternative. Clients trust us because we function as an extension of their team — not a vendor. Word of mouth has been our number one growth driver since day one.

Going beyond commercial success is central to who we are. Through our Knowledge for Good (KFG) initiative, we partner with nonprofits, social enterprises, and impact investors that take innovative approaches to improving quality of life, environmental conditions, and opportunity for people around the world. We connect KFG partners with the expert knowledge they need to drive meaningful change — at no cost to them. In 2025 alone, we donated $1.1 million worth of our services to KFG clients, and we are proud to continue supporting some of the world's leading social impact organisations.

AlphaSights supports a broad range of community partners through volunteering, direct donations, and internal fundraising. Recent partners include iMentor, Project Access, and Robin Hood. Through iMentor, our team members mentor students across the programme — with AlphaSights employees having mentored more than 100 students, many of whom will be first-generation college attendees. We also partner with Acumen Fund and Nesta Impact Investments as part of our Knowledge for Good programme, providing expert access that shapes investment decisions with social impact at their core.

Inclusion and diversity are built into how we hire, develop, and support our people. We hold Great Place to Work certifications across the US, UK, Germany, Japan, Korea, Greater China, and UAE, and have been consistently recognised on Best Workplaces for Women lists across multiple markets. Our global workforce spans 9 cities and dozens of nationalities. We actively invest in programmes that broaden access to professional opportunity — including our partnership with Handshake to attract and develop early-career talent from diverse backgrounds. We believe the strongest teams are built from the widest range of perspectives, and we are committed to making AlphaSights a place where everyone can do the best work of their career.
