Can I introduce several companies from the same corporate group?

Yes, you can introduce multiple distinct companies from the same corporate group to SourceX, provided each entity meets the program's eligibility criteria and makes an independent decision to participate.

Each referral is evaluated on a per-company basis. This means that if different companies within the same corporate group are introduced, and each one individually qualifies for a data licensing partnership, they can each be eligible for a reward.

Key considerations for referring multiple companies from a group

When referring multiple entities from a single corporate structure, consider the following:

Distinct Legal Entities: Each company should ideally be a distinct legal entity with its own operational data, rather than merely a department or division within a single company. SourceX assesses opportunities based on the individual company's operating history, documentation, and data rights. Independent Decision-Makers: Each introduction requires an authorized sponsor (an owner, executive, or their designate) for that specific company who can approve discussions and potential agreements. Consent for data licensing must come from the decision-maker of the specific entity. Unique Data Assets: Each company should possess its own valuable proprietary operational data that is relevant to buyer programs. Illustrative: A holding company might have a subsidiary focused on logistics and another on retail analytics. Each subsidiary could potentially have distinct, valuable data sets for licensing. Separate Qualification Process: Every company, regardless of its corporate affiliation, will undergo SourceX's review process independently. This includes assessment of operating maturity, original documentation, and rights to license.

How rewards are calculated

Rewards are tied to individual companies. The program specifies that total rewards are capped at $100,000 per referred company, across all installments and transactions with that company. This structure allows for potential rewards from each qualified company you successfully introduce, even if they belong to the same larger group.

What does not qualify

Introducing different departments of the same company, or referring a company that was already in discussion with SourceX, will not typically trigger an additional reward. Attribution rules ensure that the first valid referral within the attribution window gets credit once the company completes a verified application. If a company is already known to SourceX, your referral may not be eligible.

To maximize your potential, focus on identifying and introducing distinct entities within a corporate group that each possess unique data assets and independent decision-making authority. You can track the status of each individual referral through your dashboard, from "Estimated" to "Paid." For an initial, non-binding screening, you can use our company fit checker.
