Under the bridge that leads north and downhill into downtown Rochester sits a building that’s nondescript from the outside — a retrofitted old warehouse that fits nicely among the collision shops, dog groomers, and other workaday businesses that populate an industrial park. But this structure is a modern Michigan equivalent of the family garage where Steve Jobs started Apple in Los Altos, Calif., in 1976.
OneStream, a “corporate performance management” software startup that has reached an estimated valuation of more than $6 billion in a decade of existence, is one of five companies launched in Michigan that have reached the vaunted plateau of “unicorn” — marked by a valuation of $1 billion or more in the eyes of the venture capitalists who invest in such companies.
“The ‘big idea’ is the most important thing — you have to have an idea that’s worthy of a $1-billion valuation,” says Tom Shea, the Oakland University graduate and former financial manager for automakers and suppliers who founded OneStream in 2010. “Then it’s an incremental process in your brain. Once that’s underway, and you start methodically working it to the resources available, Michigan is a great place to be able to execute on that idea.”
And for the future of the region and state, that’s the issue: Can entrepreneurs and investors here create and grow enough unicorns to help the endemic auto industry amplify the state’s role as a truly robust player in the economy of the future?
At this point, the roster of unicorns from Michigan is paltry compared with the legions that have been spawned in Silicon Valley, where new unicorns emerge from the area’s low-slung tech campuses like they’re climbing out of Russian nesting dolls. Elsewhere, Boston has more unicorns than Michigan, as do a handful of emerging digital-tech havens such as Austin, Texas, and in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. Closer to home, Chicago boasts 10 unicorn companies.
Like OneStream, Michigan’s other unicorns started with a big idea entrepreneurs sparked and nourished. They were propelled by aspects of Michigan’s pre-existing economy and the major players in it, and, for various reasons, have found the state to be a propitious place to evolve into the upper echelons of today’s growth companies. Several other local high-growth tech companies are relying on the same factors to try to achieve unicorn status.
Michigan’s unicorns inarguably are headed by Rivian, the electric-car startup from Plymouth Township that, in November, went public in a Tesla-esque manner with an initial offering that yielded a market valuation of more than $100 billion, making it the world’s largest IPO of 2021.
Now 28 years old, R.J. Scaringe founded Rivian after completing his Ph.D. in mechanical engineering at the Sloan Automotive Lab at MIT. Scaringe’s aim was to create a line of highly desirable, environmentally friendly vehicles like Tesla’s. But his big idea was to focus first on pickup trucks, an exploding category that’s the most profitable for traditional automakers.
Now officially headquartered in Irvine, Calif., and making its vehicles in a former Mitsubishi assembly plant in Normal, Ill., Rivian put its engineering and development operations in Plymouth Township, qualifying Michigan as its childhood home, essentially — Rivian still employs more than 600 in the state. In addition, a few years back, Ford Motor Co. purchased 102 million shares of the company for $820 million. Based on the closing price of $100.73 a share on the Nasdaq following Rivian’s first day of trading on Nov. 10, 2021, Ford’s shares were worth $10.3 billion (the automaker owns roughly 12 percent of the company).
Rivian got an even bigger infusion from Seattle-based Amazon. As part of the arrangement with the e-commerce giant, Rivian sold a 20-percent stake and committed to deliver 100,000 electrically powered delivery vehicles by 2023.
Outside of the manufacturing realm, StockX in Detroit launched an online marketplace that resells sneakers, streetwear, collectibles, and other items. It was founded by the city’s iconic entrepreneur and venture backer, Dan Gilbert, along with three other investors, in February 2016, and earlier this year it reached what StockX said was a valuation of $3.8 billion after broadening its product line to include game consoles, smartphones, and computer hardware.
StockX began as a way to emulate a stock exchange — or a “stock market of things” — by providing market data for desired and one-of-a-kind items, including indicators such as 52-week highs and a volatility index. StockX generates revenue by keeping a percentage of each transaction.
“The original inception for StockX came from thoughts Josh had for stock-market mechanics,” says Greg Schwartz, co-founder and COO of StockX, about fellow co-founder Josh Luber. “So we’ve built the leading destination for Generation Z customers who are focused on highly sought, culturally relevant items.”
From a fairly robust market for cybersecurity expertise, DuoSecurity emerged in Ann Arbor in 2010 as a company to watch. The epiphany for computer-security experts Dug Song and Jon Oberheide was the recognition that “democratizing security would be useful in a world that’s increasingly connected and heterogeneous,” Song says. The duo started by building “second-factor authentication” security for so-called native-cloud operations. For inspiration, they looked to pioneers with Salesforce, which created a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform for customer-relationship management.
DuoSecurity blossomed and was preparing to go public in 2018 when networking-hardware giant Cisco began sniffing around, eventually offering nearly $2.4 billion in cash to buy the outfit and accelerate its growth. “It’s been quite a success,” Song says, “and we are all over the place, now in more than 100 countries, with more than 400 global offices and Cisco folks representing us. And the pandemic became another big driver of our business.”
Llamasoft was founded in Utah in 1998 by Don Hicks, who sold the company to an enterprise in Ann Arbor before returning to work for the company in 2003. A unicorn today, the company’s proposition was to automate supply-chain design and planning with artificial intelligence, long before the current supply-chain crisis that has been jangling the global economy for a year. Llamasoft’s platform is used by Fortune 500 companies and major brands including Ford, General Motors, Ikea, Michael Kors, and Unilever.
In late 2020, Llamasoft was acquired by Coupa, a California-based leader in so-called business-spend management software, for $1.5 billion. “We are very excited about joining forces with Coupa,” said Razat Gaurav — who served as the company’s CEO for a couple of years and recently departed — at the time of the acquisition. The combination “provide(s) a unique opportunity to bring together digital-transformation solutions that drive decision-making and operational efficiency across the enterprise.”
Before he launched OneStream, Shea worked in finance for local auto suppliers such as ITT and then for Chrysler, now Stellantis. All the while, Shea was writing code on his own. He came up with a software platform that tracked CAD engineering time on auto-related products and sold his first software program when he was 22 years old. Several more custom programs followed.
Emboldened by his early entrepreneurial success, Shea left the corporate world and, with his brother and a friend, founded Upstream. “By then I knew enough about the challenges that CFOs were facing, and we saw PCs and microcomputers rising above the importance of mainframes,” Shea recalls. In 2006, the trio sold Upstream to Hyperion, a software giant that subsequently was acquired by the even larger Oracle.
From there, Shea pivoted to developing a platform for corporate financial managers that would give them the same kind of comprehensive view of various accounting functions that Salesforce, for instance, was giving sales executives and that manufacturing chiefs were getting from Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platforms.
“The opportunity was how to get data from different sources, including ERP systems and mainframes, into a layer that could be combined with financial intelligence, and then focus it on the office of the CFO,” Shea says. “’OneStream means funneling all of these streams of data together, with analytics, so they can view it all for decision-making.
“We sell a platform, and we have a ‘store,’ and when a new pressure is created on CFOs, we create a new product and they download it, and they get value out of it without having to buy an entire new technology or having to vet it and make sure it’s secure. We provide true agility and continuous value.”
As with other software companies, such as those providing e-commerce capabilities, OneStream got a huge boost from COVID-19 as businesses were compelled to update their systems to work more efficiently and flexibly amid the pandemic and the impact it had on in-person interaction. Annual recurring revenue grew by 85 percent in 2020, with OneStream’s customer count growing that year by 40 percent, to 650 enterprises.
Private-equity giant KKR & Co. invested more than $500 million in OneStream in 2019, providing a $1-billion-plus valuation. Another round of investments, in April 2021, injected $200 million more and valued OneStream at $6 billion. By the end of 2021, Wall Street rumors of an impending IPO were rampant and an early 2022 announcement is expected.
In addition to huge new expansion opportunities, remote work meant OneStream had to build out physically to accommodate its growing workforce. In Rochester, Shea ambles through the headquarters building that the company — in a pre-virus strategy typical of fast-growing tech enterprises — transformed into a workday playground for millennial and Gen Z employees. The facility includes a gym-sized space for corporate dodgeball games and a virtual- reality cage that started as a golf simulator.
A dozen unused Pelotons also sit nearby on a typical day in which Shea and a handful of other OneStream employees populate the building, compared with its previous regular on-site workforce of about 80 people. The company has offices sprinkled around the world. “There used to be real electricity here,” Shea muses. “Now there are just pockets of people, although we’ll see a burst of up to 50 people here sometimes for training.”
Fortunately for Michigan, OneStream’s story isn’t a tale of a tech high-flyer originating here and then fleeing for other locales that are more accustomed to a silicon-based business. Right before the pandemic unfolded in March 2020, OneStream was planning to build a new corporate headquarters of 60,000 square feet barely a quarter mile away in downtown Rochester. It was to feature a large “shared public space” that would welcome local shoppers as well as guests from the nearby Royal Park Hotel.
“But COVID-19 came, and then a lack of clarity (formed) around how people were going to need to be in offices, and that idea had to be unwound,” Shea explains. Instead, OneStream has opted to convert a former church in downtown Birmingham into its new physical headquarters. One benefit: It’ll be about 45 minutes closer to Detroit Metro Airport than relatively isolated Rochester.
The Birmingham refurbishment will house fewer employees, as OneStream takes more of a distributed-workforce approach going forward. In late 2021, for example, the company opened an office in Golden, Colo. “We think of our offices as ‘collaboration centers’ now,” Shea says. “As the hybrid work mode evolves, we feel we need more high-quality offices with a consistent feel and culture to them, in more places, rather than one giant office.”
The great reshuffling of technology jobs due to the rise of remote work is a potential new burden for digital Michigan companies — as well as, of course, a potential blessing, depending on how migration to and from the coasts works out.
Clearly, the state has a good deal to overcome as more than 80 percent of America’s venture funding comes from California, Massachusetts, and New York. “There’s a tendency to look at the coasts, to places that are more renowned as to where entrepreneurial activity comes from, and we take it for granted that’s just where it comes from,” says Chris Thomas, co-founder of Assembly Ventures, which seeks to boost Michigan-based mobility startups, and co-founder of Detroit-based Fontinalis Ventures with Bill Ford, Ralph Booth, and a handful of other investors.
Reilly Brennan, the Michigan-based founder of Trucks Venture Capital, which is headquartered in San Francisco and places bets on mobility startups, says the state “typically hasn’t seen enough risk capital, so founders who have a great idea go to the coasts to get financing, and many build companies there.”
Yet Thomas and Brennan are leaders of efforts to expand and accelerate venture funding in Michigan. Thomas says the conventional wisdom that the state can’t do better is wrong. “The places entrepreneurial success comes from are places where individuals will take the steps necessary to compete and to win — and to not be satisfied with just being at the table, but to win.”
How can Michigan do more winning?
In the broad and long-term effort to create more unicorns, Michigan does bring some substantial things to the table. For one, there’s the legacy of the state as home and nurturer to some of the biggest startups in the world: The Detroit Three automakers and literally dozens of major suppliers that have grown up around them. The companies remain some of the richest and most significant players in the global economy.
Maybe even more relevant is that, because of how the domestic auto industry grew up and remains headquartered in Michigan, the state has the biggest concentration of mechanical and electrical engineers in the country, and one of the densest in the world. As cars have become increasingly sophisticated, software engineering also has become a critical new competency among young Michiganders, making the state more competitive with the likes of Silicon Valley — and helping the local auto industry battle for control of the brains of vehicles with digital-tech giants such as Google and Apple.
“Michigan, historically, has been light in computer-science engineers,” Brennan says, “but that has changed in the last decade or so, particularly with a lot of work being done at the University of Michigan.”
Likewise, there’s a long history of product design and design engineering in the southwest part of the state, and that legacy is part of what’s behind an ambitious collection of about two dozen major employers there called the Seamless Consortium. Members including business-furniture maker Haworth, appliance titan Whirlpool, giant auto supplier Prince, and consumer-products leader Amway collectively finance “proof of concept” engagement with startups around the world related to manufacturing technologies such as sensors, helping create entrepreneurial energy and resources that often find their way back to the Grand Rapids area.
“The West Coast is getting excited about the Internet of Things, connecting widgets to the internet,” says Mike Morin, co-director of the Seamless Consortium, “but it’s easier for physical companies to integrate this stuff than for digital people to integrate all the capital in the physical world. That’s why you’re seeing this happen here.”
Brennan believes that important parts of the Michigan proposition for creating more unicorns are the same elements that make the state a great place to live in general — and the same elements that have local leaders hoping to lure more tech entrepreneurs here as the diaspora from coastal cities continues in the wake of the pandemic. “Michigan has so many inherent good qualities,” Brennan says. “A wonderful low cost of living, for example, and very low taxes compared with New York and California.”
Venture capitalists from California, checking out DuoSecurity a few years ago, had to “come to Ann Arbor in the dead of winter” or Song wouldn’t meet with them, Brennan says. “They would say, ‘When are you going to leave Michigan?’ — like we’d be the last ones to turn out the lights. I tried hard not to be offended by that, but on a personal level, I believe Ann Arbor is the best place in the country to raise a family.”
Conversely, Schwartz says being in Michigan has proven to be a “competitive advantage” for StockX in a business where access to talent is key. “We’re able to be a big fish in a smaller pond at an earlier stage than if we were based in Silicon Valley and competing with Facebook and Google and Twitter. People can work for an exciting consumer-tech startup here.”
State government, in general, and the Michigan Economic Development Corp. get kudos from some for providing entrepreneurs in the state with incentives such as seed funds, says Ara Topouzian, executive director of the Michigan Venture Capital Association in Novi.
For instance, May Mobility “got really good support” from the MEDC as the maker of autonomous vehicles in Ann Arbor. Edwin Olson, co-founder and CEO of May Mobility, says there was minimal red tape in granting the startup a number of manufacturer’s license plates that allowed the company, before its technology was completely proven, to test its vehicles on the streets and roads of Livingston County and beyond.
But it’s crucial for Michigan leaders to do more to nurture tech entrepreneurs and future unicorns, and to have more arrows in their quiver to do so. The most important improvement factor would be for more high-risk capital to originate with entities and people in the state. That might create more loyalty by successful entrepreneurs to the notion of staying in Michigan, and it would ensure that more monetary payback when startups are sold or go public would rebound to local residents.
“Ultimately, the highest multiple (that’s) paid back to investors is to people from the first rounds of capital-raising,” Brennan says. Consider, for example, that the sale of DuoSecurity to Cisco “was a great success for the founders in Michigan, but not for capital in the state of Michigan, because most of the exit profits went to firms that are on the coasts.”
Even Michigan, which has its share of billionaires outside of unicorn founders, can’t bootstrap itself enough with native capital if there isn’t a concerted effort. Thomas calls for “all the major players from the private sector to get around the table and talk about how we can partner (with startups) in unique ways that can succeed. There’s a tendency to look outward for partners, but we need to have an equal desire to look inward.
“We have to move away from the mindset of ‘What is our legacy?’ to one of, ‘What will our legacy be?’ ” Thomas adds. “It sounds like a small shift, but it’s actually a huge shift. It’s something we need to do a lot better.”
Brennan believes “everybody in the state should invest in a Michigan startup each year” — a sort of crowdfunding approach — and says he’s working with some entrepreneur friends “who’ve been thinking down the road about how to do this.”
Jeff Mason thinks the state already is “benefiting from a capital trend that started looking elsewhere for investments than the coasts over the last few years, because the coasts were very expensive to invest in.” The founder of Groundspeed Analytics, a near-unicorn in Ann Arbor, says more investors have “found less costly opportunities” in places including Nashville and Austin, as well as Ann Arbor.
Michigan, indeed, “is getting more capital” from other states and from within, Topouzian says, “but these companies are called ‘unicorns’ for a reason — you’re not going to have thousands of them overnight. A multitude of components are necessary. But one thing is for sure: The pipeline for startups and entrepreneurs in Michigan is plentiful.”
