Funding Report
PUBLISHED FEBRUARY 4, 2015
© 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ● MATTERMARK.COM ● (415) 366-6587 2
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.

Methodology
Time Period
For this report we examined companies funded in the past ten years. Funding year represents the calendar year at
which a company was funded. For example companies receiving funding in 2014, received funding any time between
January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014.
Funding Rounds
For venture rounds, we only included deals in which the amount of funding raised was disclosed.
Criteria
All analyses include USA companies funded over the past 10 years. Companies in the Biotech, Energy, Clean Tech and
Pharmaceutical industries have been excluded from all analyses.
Data Sources
Mattermark uses a broad range of sources to present the most complete picture possible of the startup ecosystem. In
addition to extensive primary source research sourced specifically for this report, Mattermark uses publicly-available
data from Crunchbase (www.crunchbase.com), AngelList (www.angel.co), NASDAQ (www.nasdaq.com), the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission (www.sec.gov), The White House Office of Management & Budget, and
source relationships with thousands of investors, community leaders and startup founders.

Startup Funding Report: Historical Analysis 2005 - 2014

  • 2. © 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ● MATTERMARK.COM ● (415) 366-6587 2 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. MATTERMARK STARTUP FUNDING REPORT

  • 4. © 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ● MATTERMARK.COM ● (415) 366-6587 4 Methodology Time Period For this report we examined companies funded in the past ten years. Funding year represents the calendar year at which a company was funded. For example companies receiving funding in 2014, received funding any time between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014. Funding Rounds For venture rounds, we only included deals in which the amount of funding raised was disclosed. Criteria All analyses include USA companies funded over the past 10 years. Companies in the Biotech, Energy, Clean Tech and Pharmaceutical industries have been excluded from all analyses. Data Sources Mattermark uses a broad range of sources to present the most complete picture possible of the startup ecosystem. In addition to extensive primary source research sourced specifically for this report, Mattermark uses publicly-available data from Crunchbase (www.crunchbase.com), AngelList (www.angel.co), NASDAQ (www.nasdaq.com), the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (www.sec.gov), The White House Office of Management & Budget, and source relationships with thousands of investors, community leaders and startup founders. Please send any questions, comments or corrections for the editor to support@mattermark.com. MATTERMARK STARTUP FUNDING REPORT
