var ReactDOM = require('react-dom');
var VirtualizedSelect = require('react-virtualized-select');

            optionPartnerList: []

        };
    },
    componentDidMount () {
        var qS = queryString.parse(location.search);
        if (qS && qS.search) {
            this.setState({search: qS.search, visible: true});
        }

        this._unsubscribe = AppStore.listen(Utils.createRefluxComponentDispatcher(this));
    },
    componentDidUpdate: function () {

        );
    }
});

getting this exception 

Error: Element type is invalid: expected a string (for built-in components) or a class/function (for composite components) but got: object. Check the render method of `exports`.     at invariant (bundle.c81618e7.js:5333)     at instantiateReactComponent (bundle.c81618e7.js:27936)     at Object.updateChildren (bundle.c81618e7.js:17273)     at ReactDOMComponent._reconcilerUpdateChildren (bundle.c81618e7.js:23289)     at ReactDOMComponent._updateChildren (bundle.c81618e7.js:23393)     at ReactDOMComponent.updateChildren (bundle.c81618e7.js:23380)     at ReactDOMComponent._updateDOMChildren (bundle.c81618e7.js:19340)     at ReactDOMComponent.updateComponent (bundle.c81618e7.js:19154)     at ReactDOMComponent.receiveComponent (bundle.c81618e7.js:19116)     at Object.receiveComponent (bundle.c81618e7.js:24009)

The problem is with the line:

var VirtualizedSelect = require('react-virtualized-select');

Which needs to be changed to:

var VirtualizedSelect = require('react-virtualized-select').default;

The error message is because what's being imported isn't a React component, and seemingly has to do with the way that the export default in React Virtualized Select's source has been traspiled into ES5.

I think you forgot to add the render method for the class component.

checkout the code below

    var React = require('react');
var ReactDOM = require('react-dom');
var VirtualizedSelect = require('react-virtualized-select');

module.exports = React.createClass({
    componentName: 'Search',
    getDefaultProps() {
        return {};
    },
    getInitialState() {
        return {
            error: false,
            authenticated: false,
            visible: true,
            data: null,
            showAccountSelection: false,
            selected: null,
            search: '',
            optionPartnerList: []

        };
    },
    componentDidMount () {
        var qS = queryString.parse(location.search);
        if (qS && qS.search) {
            this.setState({search: qS.search, visible: true});
        }

        this._unsubscribe = AppStore.listen(Utils.createRefluxComponentDispatcher(this));
    },
    componentDidUpdate: function () {
        if (this.refs.inputSearch) {
            this.refs.inputSearch.focus();
            this.refs.inputSearch.select()
        }
    },

    componentWillUnmount () {
        this._unsubscribe();
    }
   render() {
     return (

            <div style={{float:'left'}} className="search-div">
                {this.searchIcon()}
                <div className="overlay" style={overlayStyle}>
                    {closeButton}
                    <div className="global-search center-content-wrapper" style={style}>
                        <form id="searchFormComponent" ref={function(){$('#searchFormComponent').show('fast')}}
                              className="global-search" onSubmit={this.handleClick} style={{height: '500px'}}>

                                       style={{marginBottom:'1px'}} disabled={componentDisabled}
                                       defaultValue={this.state.search}>

                                <VirtualizedSelect
                                    options={self.optionPartnerList}
                                    onChange={(selectValue) => this.setState({ selectValue })}
                                    value={this.state.selectValue}
                                />
                                <button id="searchbutton" className="btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block t-font f-1"
                                        disabled={componentDisabled}
                                        onClick={this.handleClick}
                                        style={{ paddingLeft: '4px',paddingRight: '4px', fontSize:'1.1em',marginLeft:'4px'}}>
                                    {buttonIcon}

            </div>
        );
   }
    }
});
