NEW YORK, Jan. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Intralinks® Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: IL), a leading, global SaaS provider of enterprise content collaboration solutions, today announced that it has partnered with PEI Services (PEI) to expand the information available to M&A professionals within the Intralinks DealNexus online deal sourcing and marketing platform. With this partnership, Intralinks augments its robust, trusted database of private equity portfolio companies with invaluable data from PEI that enhances Intralinks DealNexus' proprietary matching capabilities as well as delivers an even more comprehensive, content-driven destination for dealmakers.

The Intralinks DealNexus platform has seen tremendous growth this past year, with 46 percent annual growth in member firm count and 96 percent growth in unique members from year-end 2013 to year-end 2014. Deal flow has also increased by 70 percent year-over-year. The increase in users and deals presented on the platform are another indication that Intralinks DealNexus is a go-to destination for dealmakers worldwide.

As a result of the PEI partnership, Intralinks DealNexus users will now have access to profiles of more than 57,000 portfolio companies that are tied to current private equity member firms on the platform. The addition of this high-quality data from one of the best sources for middle-market private equity information in the business will enable Intralinks to dramatically increase the quality of the deal matches made by the platform. The data will also be accessible to Intralinks DealNexus members who use the platform as a research and networking tool, solidifying its position as a vital resource to the M&A community. 

"Our platform has been gathering profiles of portfolio companies, but the information has only been as good as what our users have time to provide," said Matthew Wells, senior manager of strategy and product marketing at Intralinks. "Partnering with PEI enables us to populate these portfolio profiles with unique data that will make Intralinks DealNexus a destination whether preparing for a pitch, researching, networking, or taking a deal to market."
