In 2015, Qualcomm committed to purchasing almost all of Colossal’s NYC units. The Qualcomm campaign was so successful that the telecommunications giant returned in 2016 for another, equally impressive campaign.

While planning for the 2016 campaign, Qualcomm asked if we could prove that our walls are not only near tech companies but also tech influencers’ after-hours haunts.

An intensive market research study confirmed that our walls do, in fact, reflect the hang out habits of tech influencers.

New York City

Silicon Alley and the Thriving Tech Community

Within the last 15 years, New York City has exploded onto the scene as the largest urban center for innovation and the second-largest tech hub in existence. In terms of venture funding, between 2003 and 2013, the city grew at twice the speed of Silicon Valley, putting it on track to take over as the global industry leader.

Colossal dominates these neighborhoods with dozens of locations at key destinations.
