Silicon Alley, Technology district in Flatiron District, Manhattan, United States.
Silicon Alley extends through Manhattan from Midtown to Lower Manhattan, concentrating numerous technology companies near Madison Square Park and Union Square.
The term emerged in 1995 when recruiter Jason Denmark posted job listings seeking California developers for New York's growing technology sector.
The district shapes New York's digital innovation landscape with startups, venture capital firms, and technology companies establishing their presence in Manhattan.
The area contains over 369,000 technology jobs and continues to expand with new companies joining the ecosystem between 23rd Street and Lower Manhattan.
New York technology companies raised 138 billion dollars in venture capital funding between 2018 and 2022, making it the second largest tech hub after Silicon Valley.
