History
UpCity was founded in 2009 with the goal of helping businesses navigate the rapidly changing world of digital marketing. As the number of marketing service providers grew, so did the challenges for businesses searching for information they could trust to drive their decisions. We launched the UpCity marketplace in 2017 to empower successful relationships between businesses and marketing service providers by providing transparent, trustworthy information. In 2019, the UpCity marketplace expanded to additional B2B service providers from accountants to HR consultants.
