New York is an adtech and ecommerce town edition…
Armed with some publicly available data from our friends at CrunchBase, we’ve broken down the 10 largest Series B rounds of all time in NYC. I have included some additional information as well, such as year of funding, industry, investors in the round, and current status of the company, to further the analysis. In order to maintain a focus on conventional tech startups, pharmaceutical and biotech companies were removed from the data.
