About our hosts & sponsors:
Andrew Yeung is the founder of andrew's mixers (a portfolio of events companies including The Junto Series and Lumos House). He is also a Partner at Next Wave NYC, a pre-seed/seed found backed by Flybridge Capital. Andrew's hosted 100+ events for 30k+ tech founders and professionals in 8 cities that were featured in Bloomberg, Business Insider, Fast Company, and Fortune Magazine. Business Insider dubbed him the "Gatsby of Silicon Alley."
Ankur Nagpal is the founder of Carry, a platform to help business owners and modern professionals grow their net worth by saving money on taxes. Previously, Ankur founded Teachable, and scaled it to $60M in ARR before an eventual $250M exit to Hotmart in 2020. Ankur also runs Vibe Capital, a venture fund with $100M under management and 80+ portfolio companies.
Antler works with founders through our signature founder residency, adding value immediately, and taking no equity up front. We receive over 117,000 applications each year to build companies with us, and have grown to 18 funds with residencies in 26 cities around the globe. Founders also have the opportunity to pitch our Investment Committee to receive a $200k investment for 8%, allowing them to build for 12-18 months rather than attempting to raise before they have real traction. If you have any questions, ask our GPs in our next AMA here.
