NYC just closed 119 venture deals worth $70.4 billion in Q1 while San Francisco proper did 39 deals at $4.7 billion, and somehow the entire VC world is still pretending you have to be in the Bay to access deals. The gap isn't even close—New York has a 65% deal-count advantage, and here's the kicker: Atlanta matched San Francisco at 39 deals each. Everyone's optimizing for geographic proximity to AI labs while SEC Form D data shows the actual repeatable deal velocity is happening 3,000 miles east, but nobody's updated the conference talking points yet.
