"Venture capital and private equity firms, entrepreneurs, and public companies looking for acquisitions are just a few of the possible users who could benefit from the Guide's centralized information. There has been approximately $4 billion invested in Digital NY companies since 2006 so we think there will be no shortage of interest in this report. It is my personal interest in this area which has driven our focus and this report is simply the latest example of how we strive to be the most knowledgeable investment bank in this field."
Pratik Patel, Gridley's Chief Digital Strategist adds, "We decided to start this project after we were out visiting companies and investors in May/June and there was a lot of interest in what is going on in New York. People could see that there was a lot of digital activity -- they just didn't know how extensive it is. So, we decided to make it easy for them to understand. Our website (www.gridleydigitalny.com) enables visitors to quickly gain an overview of what's happening in New York and to focus on key areas of interest."
