Manhattan Surpasses San Francisco as Leading Hub for Early-Stage Startups, Finds Geeky News

Oct 11, 2023



Surrey, United Kingdom Oct 11, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Geeky News, a leading technology and lifestyle journal, is excited to announce the publication of its latest article, "Manhattan Surpasses San Francisco as Leading Hub for Early-Stage Startups." The article explores the dynamic shift in the startup landscape, with Manhattan emerging as the new epicentre for early-stage startups in the United States.

The article reveals that Manhattan is now the go-to destination for early-stage startups, further solidifying New York City's position as a prominent tech hub. An astonishing 543 startups based in Manhattan successfully secured seed funding or series A funding over the past financial year, which ended on 31 March. In comparison, only 486 companies in San Francisco achieved similar funding milestones during the same period.

Whilst San Francisco still leads in overall funding, with startups raising nearly $4.3 billion, Manhattan-based companies raised a substantial $3.6 billion. This shift in the startup landscape has been driven by tech professionals increasingly favouring Manhattan as a place to live and work, attracted by the city's vibrant culture and myriad opportunities.

Shai Goldman, an employee at a San Francisco-based financial management software firm, notes, "Most of that is actually concentrated between Soho and Flatiron, a walkable stretch of 1.5 miles." This concentration of tech talent has significantly contributed to Manhattan's rise as a tech hotspot.

Geeky News further delves into how New York City has emerged as the epicentre of the nation's technological boom, rebounding quickly from the challenges posed by the pandemic. The work-from-home culture and a diverse talent pool have played a pivotal role in this transition.

Alexander Rinke, co-CEO of Celon, believes that New York City's diverse talent pool is a key factor in the recent growth of tech startups in the city.

The influx of tech firms and professionals into Manhattan has not only transformed the city's startup scene but also had a profound impact on the property market. The demand for high-end residential and commercial space in Manhattan is increasing. This is attracting startups, tech giants, executives, and professionals.

New York City's tech hub and property market are coming together, making it a top choice for tech investors, entrepreneurs, and luxury property owners. As a result, the transformation has created a higher demand for luxury property management services such as The London Management Company in NYC. These services offer top-quality maintenance and management.

Geeky News invites readers to explore the full article to gain deeper insights into the changing landscape of the tech and property markets in Manhattan, and the city's growing prominence as a hub for early-stage startups.

Watsons brings Korean and Asian beauty closer to Filipino shoppers

From glass skin and barely-there makeup to rosy cheeks, glossy lips and the perfect aegyo-sal, Korean and Asian beauty trends continue to influence beauty routines. The good news is that shoppers do not have to fly to Seoul or wait for their next online haul to get their hands on popular products. Watsons brings some of the most-loved Asian beauty finds closer to Filipino shoppers, making it easier to discover, try and incorporate them into everyday routines. Whether restocking a holy grail product or exploring the latest item gaining attention on social media, shoppers can find their beauty favorites at Watsons' more than 1,220 stores nationwide or through the Watsons App. From glass skin to an everyday glow Part of K-beauty's appeal lies in its ingredients, which target specific skin concerns. For smoother, clearer-looking skin, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) help exfoliate dead skin cells and clear buildup. Products from Beauty of Joseon and Oxecure offer options for these concerns. Bakuchiol, a plant-derived ingredient often used as an alternative to retinol, may also help improve the appearance of skin texture and fine lines. Products from Eqqualberry, Some By Mi and Deoproce feature this ingredient. For a hydrated K-beauty glow, hyaluronic acid helps attract and retain moisture and can be found in products from Torriden, ISOI and COSRX. Meanwhile, soothing ingredients such as centella asiatica, commonly known as cica, are featured in products from Dr.G, Round Lab and SKIN1004, making them options for those with sensitive or stressed skin. For those looking to brighten their complexion, vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps improve the appearance of dullness and uneven skin tone. Options are available from Sola, Dear Klairs and iWhite Korea. Another ingredient gaining attention in K-beauty is PDRN, which is featured in products from Biodance, Genabelle and Anua. It is used in formulations marketed toward smoother, revitalized-looking skin. Daily sun protection also remains an essential part of any beauty routine. Shoppers can explore sunscreen options from Bioré and Beauty of Joseon. “K-beauty has changed the way many Filipinos discover and enjoy beauty. It's no longer just about following a trend; it's about finding products and routines that fit naturally into their everyday lives. At Watsons, we want to make that discovery easier by bringing the brands and products our customers are excited about closer to them, whether they're shopping in-store or online,” said Sharon Decapia, senior assistant vice president for marketing communications, public relations and sustainability at Watsons Philippines.
