GELITA take advantage of the Octorank SRM
Octorank provides the Startup Relationship Manager (Octorank SRM) for GELITA's Partnership Program as a white-label solution. Startups can apply directly to GELITA's startup unit.
Octorank is the best partner we ever had to support us in the scouting process of startups for our Startupnight. Their tool takes out the complexity, gives a good overview and allows easy collaboration with our partners.
Octorank designed the “Digital Challenges” startup program and accompanying campaign with us and launched it in the startup ecosystem. Through this, Octorank made a significant contribution to exciting a huge number of startups worldwide about our BASF topics. As a result, we are conducting pilot projects with very capable startups with the aim of a global rollout with BASF.
Octorank not only delivers high quality results in an efficient, friendly and timely manner, their ability to customise their approach based on their insight of a client’s specific needs, make them a partner of choice.
The software has given our innovation team a broad range of opportunities to support our open innovation process and meets Vattenfall’s demanding process and IT requirements. We are happy to work regularly on new ideas and features with Octorank’s product team.

implemented by Octorank for our customers.
Octorank was founded as a "startup" in Berlin in 2017. After going through two incubators, we decided against venture capital ourselves and for the path of self-driven growth from generated revenues. Today, after more than three years and 25 startup initiatives for our clients, we have an expert insight into how both established companies and startups work and how both worlds collide. Before every scouting and campaign, we like to share our experience with you personally. Get in touch with us!

Is Octorank a startup database?
Yes: You can use our Startup Relationship Manager (SRM) internally as your startup database. However, the software does not initially contain any data out of the box. Typically, our customers then acquire startup data through networking, startup scouting, or through applications to their startup programs.
And no: If you're looking for a “startup database” where you can find a large number of startups and investors without having to edit or maintain the data yourself, we recommend Crunchbase.
