Data request · Citizen request

I am looking for data on which businesses in New York City recently opened or changed ownership. I am researching the percentage of business change in the area. We are trying to measure the link between new business and economic factors.

Hi, At this time, we believe that your requested dataset is not maintained by a New York City agency. Business ownership would more likely reside with New York State offices, possibly the NYS Department of State. you can view NY State data here: https://data.ny.gov/ Some organizations that operate in the City of New York may not fall under the purview of the NYC open data law. You can find further detail on the law here: http://www1.nyc.gov/site/doitt/initiatives/open-da... You are welcome to submit a new dataset request with additional detail and specifically named agencies for referral. Thank you, - NYC Open Data Team
