SaaS in NYC
June 2015
2015-2025: The NYC SaaS
Decade?
2
As the enterprise SaaS market continues to mature, and as we watch a blossoming of
SaaS activity in New York City, we believe NYC is poised to become a true leader in the
formation of companies leading the next wave of enterprise transformation, ultimately
challenging even the Bay Area for SaaS leadership.
Primary Venture Partners took a deep look at the existing NYC SaaS landscape, seeking a
clear understanding of the reality behind our anecdotal sense of our home market’s
strengths. What we found is exciting and bodes awfully well for Primary and our friends
who are focused on NYC SaaS investing. There is much more to come!
Key Findings:
SaaS company formation and investing has been rapidly accelerating in recent years,
and growing much more quickly than in the Bay Area
We’ve already seen a bunch of early exit successes, but with a growing pipeline of
extremely well-funded, high growth successes, we can expect many, many more
NYC is particularly well positioned to lead as vertical SaaS applications continue to grow
in importance vs. the historic horizontal paradigm
We are living in a SaaS economy

Nationally, >$200B of public market value created in the last decade

Similarly, the growth of $$ invested in NYC
SaaS companies has been more than
double the pace of growth of Investment
dollars in the Bay. While on average still
smaller than Bay Area financings, NYC
deals are getting bigger fast..

Five years ago, NYC had only 25% as
many SaaS deals as the Bay Area. The
NYC SaaS market has grown 2x as fast
as the Bay’s, and last year had half the

What Next?
19
NYC’s SaaS ecosystem has arrived, and is poised for growth. So what now?
We are catching up to the Bay Area, and the growing importance of vertical
SaaS should help us further close the gap in the coming years
With a strong and growing pipeline of budding unicorns, we can expect
Medidata to have plenty of company in the NYC SaaS Unicorn Club by
2020
Look for a couple of sectors to really flourish – early promising candidates
are real estate, finance, healthcare/pharma, and small business
The big question: will we build standalone, anchor tenants in the
community, or a steady stream of M&A fodder for the big SaaS titans?

SaaS in NYC: 2015 Overview, Primary Venture Partners

  • 2. 2015-2025: The NYC SaaS Decade? 2 As the enterprise SaaS market continues to mature, and as we watch a blossoming of SaaS activity in New York City, we believe NYC is poised to become a true leader in the formation of companies leading the next wave of enterprise transformation, ultimately challenging even the Bay Area for SaaS leadership. Primary Venture Partners took a deep look at the existing NYC SaaS landscape, seeking a clear understanding of the reality behind our anecdotal sense of our home market’s strengths. What we found is exciting and bodes awfully well for Primary and our friends who are focused on NYC SaaS investing. There is much more to come! Key Findings: SaaS company formation and investing has been rapidly accelerating in recent years, and growing much more quickly than in the Bay Area We’ve already seen a bunch of early exit successes, but with a growing pipeline of extremely well-funded, high growth successes, we can expect many, many more NYC is particularly well positioned to lead as vertical SaaS applications continue to grow in importance vs. the historic horizontal paradigm

We are catching up to the Bay Area, and the growing importance of vertical SaaS should help us further close the gap in the coming years With a strong and growing pipeline of budding unicorns, we can expect Medidata to have plenty of company in the NYC SaaS Unicorn Club by 2020 Look for a couple of sectors to really flourish – early promising candidates are real estate, finance, healthcare/pharma, and small business The big question: will we build standalone, anchor tenants in the community, or a steady stream of M&A fodder for the big SaaS titans?
