Mattermark Startup Funding Report PUBLISHED FEBRUARY 4, 2015 MATTERMARK STARTUP FUNDING REPORT Introduction This report provides a data-driven exploration of the United States startup ecosystem. Take an in-depth look at the funding events, growth signals, exits and other insights into the fastest growing private companies. The resources that flow into startups each year are a calculated risk on the part of investors, founders, employees, service-providers and everyone who stands to benefit from the proliferation of new product, better services, and saved time and money. Understanding how businesses are created, funded, grown and ultimately rewarded with sustainability or an exit helps inform the conversations and actions for the coming years, and it is our hope you will read this report and combine it with your special knowledge of your industry, region, role and community as you charge forward into the New Year. Sincerely, Danielle Morrill, CEO Cofounder of Mattermark Acknowledgements The Startup Funding Report would not be possible without a team effort. Thank you to the Mattermark analysts, researchers, software engineers and designers who made this report possible: Sarah Catanzaro, and Avi Eisenberger. ? 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ● MATTERMARK.COM ● 415 366-6587 2 MATTERMARK STARTUP FUNDING REPORT Table of Contents Disclaimer 5 Historical Analysis This information has been prepared by Mattermark Inc. solely for informational purposes.
