A lot of commerce/ad startups (Amazon influence?) and a lot of LeadGen stuff (AllStarDirectories influence and several key investors up here seem to like that style of business). Plenty of B2B.
There's a fair bit of gaming DNA here (Valve, BigFish, PopCap) but strangely few gaming startups (there are a few). Lots of mobile stuff (notably Swype).
I'd say it's pretty all-over-the-map.
- forrestthewoods 15y agoI'd say that Seattle has plenty of gaming startups, they just don't seek VC money. The VC money for games is primarily (exclusively?) in social games which a lot of devs aren't interested in.
