CrunchBase tracks investments, partnerships, etc in the technology and startup space. 

A connector to the CrunchBase API would allow CTAs based around customer investments; if a customer receives a sizable investment, that's might indicate a potential upsell opportunity. Tracking news stories could help keep CSMs informed about notable events that effect their customers (acquisitions, mergers, etc).

    This is a great idea. 

    Rosetta Stone uses Owler for this service, but it's not currently integrated with Gainsight. Some form of connector with an equivalent tool would be great.
