NY #Techweek Chess Not Checkers: Builders, Founders and Funders

​Escape the hustle of New York Tech Week and join us for "Chess Not Checkers," a unique event designed to connect builders, founders, and funders in a relaxed yet stimulating environment. It’s not just about who you are or what you do; it’s also about how you think.

​Building on the insights and interests from our first event during NFT Week, this gathering will again feature casual chess games for you to join or observe. Come to play some games and or engage in meaningful conversations with other builders, founders, and funders during New York Tech Week.

​This event is a part of #TechWeek - a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.”
