To add a sub-organization to a company profile To add a sub-organization to a company profile, you must start from the parent company’s profile.

In this example, we'll say that Pied Piper has a sub-org company named Koalaty. Therefore, we'll be starting on the Pied Piper company profile.

Click the three-dot icon, and select 'Edit' at the upper right corner of the profile to begin.

This will take you to the Edit New Sub-Organization page where you can begin to add sub-organizations to the company profile.

If the company you are attempting to add as a sub-organization already has an existing Crunchbase profile, you simply need to type the company’s name into the search bar and select the correct profile to begin adding it as a sub-organization:

Your screen will return to the Edit New Sub-Organization page where you can fill out the Details section by selecting a Relationship to Parent from the dropdown menu:
