HOW DID YORKSEED GET STARTED IN SXSW AUSTIN 2023?

Hi, I’m Jessica! I created the viral list of unofficial SXSW 2023 events that didn’t require a badge, all during a 3-hour train ride from NYC to DC. I promoted it in Austin with a QR code on my outfit, and it became a huge hit! This led me to host a sold-out Founders x Investors Mixer with just an hour of planning.

Inspired by this success, I launched Yorkseed, building on my Earth Day Charity Brunch and an exclusive WhatsApp community I formed after SXSW. Now, we have over 1,000 vetted investors and founders in NYC and thousands of members across 20 global hubs. Our newsletter, has thousands of subscribers worldwide, including Angels, VCs, GP/LP, Family Fund Officers, Head of Trade Offices, Founders from Early to IPO. We’ve hosted exclusive events in 5 countries and Sydney would be our 6th! Currently we are local partners for the Founder Institute in NYC and more! Read more!
