Why it works

Built for how VCs actually support their portfolio

You already help portfolio companies find advisors and fill capability gaps. This deal gives you the infrastructure to do it across your entire portfolio, not one company at a time, not at full price.

01

One deal for up to 5 companies

Rather than each portfolio company negotiating separately, you cover all five at once, for €6,000 total. That's €1,200 per company, versus the €3,900 standard rate.

02

Show up as a hands-on investor

Portfolio companies see you actively delivering resources, not just capital. Advisor access is a tangible, recurring benefit you can point to at every board meeting and check-in.

03

Expert-facilitated interview day

When candidate shortlists are ready, a Boardio subject matter expert (or country manager) joins the interview day to help evaluate candidates in a structured debrief.

04

Onboarding support from day one

We help portfolio companies land their advisor properly, with advisory agreement templates and negotiation recommendations, so engagements start on the right footing.

What you get

Everything in one package

One deal, one invoice, full advisor search coverage across all five companies, plus interview facilitation and onboarding support you won't find in the standard per-company offering.

  • Full Boardio search for up to 5 companies: Each portfolio company gets a complete advisor search, from posting to curated shortlist.
  • Access to 12k+ vetted advisors globally: Nordics, US, Germany, the UK and 120 countries, covering expansion, fundraising, enterprise sales, and more.
  • "VC-backed search" badge on all postings: Signals quality to advisors and improves application rates.
  • Portfolio company onboarding: Boardio handles setup and activation for each company so they arrive ready to post.
  • Advisory agreement templates: Recommendations and templates to support negotiations, so nothing falls apart at the finish line.
Exclusive to this deal

Expert-facilitated interview day

Once each portfolio company has a candidate shortlist, a Boardio subject matter expert (or country manager, depending on the market) joins the interview day in person or remotely.

After interviews, we run a structured debrief: helping your team and the portfolio company evaluate candidates against the brief, flag red flags, and identify the strongest fit with confidence.

We also provide recommended advisory agreement templates and support during the negotiation phase, so engagements start clearly and without friction.

It worked like a dream! We found a new board member and an advisor for the German market. I recommend Boardio to any founder looking to expand internationally.

The Boardio search process was very effective and resulted in top quality advisors. All three are now instrumental in accelerating our go-to-market strategy!

Pricing

One tier. Simple math.

No complexity. One deal covers up to 5 portfolio companies, at a fraction of what each company would pay separately.

The maths

If just 2 of your companies find their advisor through Boardio, the standard success fee would be €7,800. This deal costs €6,000, for all five. You're ahead from company number one.

Per-company cost

At €6,000 for five companies, you're paying €1,200 per company, compared to €3,900 at list price. A discount of roughly 70%.

What's different from a standard search

The standard Boardio search runs to shortlist. This deal adds an expert interview day with a subject matter expert or country manager, and advisory agreement templates so the engagement lands properly.

How payment works

One invoice to you as the VC. We invoice the fund, not each portfolio company individually. No per-search billing, no surprises.

All prices exclude VAT.
