About Event

We’ve received some really good interest for the event 🙏 We’d love to have as many as possible, but want to keep the format so it’s conducive for having genuine conversations. For this first installment, we’re going to cap it at 20 of us for coffee at 11:00. But please join us for the Yorkseed Passport Series: Authentic Connections (Happy Hour) at 1pm!

This event is open for all founders investors / executives and tech community builders.

Join us for a special event titled "Authentic Connections: Founders, Investors, Conversations, Community, and Giving Back," where we invite you to engage in a warm and supportive conversation. This gathering provides a safe and intimate space for individuals to share their career paths, personal anecdotes, favorite tools, and support systems. Whether you're facing the challenges of being an entrepreneur, experiencing high levels of stress in the venture industry, or simply seeking connection, this event is designed to encourage open communication and foster a sense of community. Join us for an afternoon filled with empathy, understanding, and unity as we journey through life's ups and downs together over a cup of coffee (or two).
