Who we are
In 2007, PitchBook Founder and CEO John Gabbert knew that his idea for
an actionable, extensive database for private equity-focused intelligence
was worth pursuing. He and seven others set up shop in a 200-square-
foot, windowless office, and the rest is PitchBook history.

Since those early days, PitchBook has expanded its coverage areas to
include the entirety of the public and private markets. We’ve added
thousands of datasets and millions of individual insights to the platform,
and we’ve pioneered new features and products that surface the
information our clients need to win. We look at every day as a new
opportunity to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations through
helping them make informed decisions that propel their firms forward.

Now part of Morningstar, PitchBook is headquartered in Seattle, London


and Hong Kong with additional offices in New York and San Francisco.

John Gabbert, founder and CEO of


PitchBook, has more than 17 years
of experience building technology
for professionals who work in the
private markets.
