Do you guys have a definitive list of ALL Bay Area Public Companies? 
Let me know if it'll take more time, although, I know that the Merc/SF
Chronicle each publish their lists.....Ultimately, there is a finite
number of public companies and there has to be a list somewhere......

Hello el_lobito-ga,

By "public companies" are you referring to companies that trade on the
stock exchange?  This is the usual meaning of the term, but I just
wanted to double-check with you.

Thanks.

Also...is it a list of company NAMES ONLY that you're after, or is
there other information you're hoping to get?

pafalafa, you are an astute researcher.  Yes, that's what I mean. 
Essentially, we're an IT consulting company (Google is actually a good
customer of ours :-)) and we work mostly with Public Companies i.e.
stock exchange traded.  We also work with large privates (like you
guys were last year) but that's a bit harder to research I would
think, and I wanted to see what I could get for $50 bucks so decided
to start with public companies.

What I'm trying to avoid is EVERY public company in the country or
california, etc. which is why I wanted a smarter person than me
researching this.

Thanks and I'm glad you guys are on top of my quest quickly.

el_lobito-ga,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Here's the list I came up with, based on companies in SF or South SF
that report to the SEC.  It may look like there are duplicates in the
list, but actually, each listing is a separate entity for reporting
purposes.

There are about 100 companies here...let me know if it looks like a
reasonable list to you.  I don't want to post it as a formal answer
until you give it a thumbs up (or thumbs down, if necessary).

ALSO...I can give you other cities, or crank out all companies in
California with a given SIC code (and industry classification code).

Let me know what you think,

pafalafa-ga

Getting CLose.  By SF Bay Area I mean all bay area companies, so that
would include SF/Penninsula/Silicon Valley (sj, mountain view, etc.)
East Bay, etc.

I would guess that there's 600 or so of thse....

Pretty Good Guess!  I came up with a bit over 500.  

Please don't rate this answer until you're fully satisfied with the
results.  Let me know if there's anything else you need beyond this
list.

Thanks for the generous feedback...and the nice tip, too!

As far as I recall, the zip codes I used for the list are anything
starting with 94..., along with 951..


Let me know if there's anything else you need.
