​We're doing a roadshow and NYC is our second stop. Another tech event in Q1? One you'll actually want to come to? Oh yeah.

​This is part 2 of 3 of the DraperU Ventures roadshow. We're making a pit stop in NYC to get some of our favorite investor friends & portfolio companies together.

​​On the docket:

​This one is geared towards tier 1 investors / industry leaders in all things web3, ai, and fintech. Yes, we're actually checking RSVPs at the door. Don't worry, if you don't get approved for this one, I'm sure we'll be back!

​We'll have some light programming, but in general, it's an opportunity to connect with other investors & a few of our portcos over some yummy bites and bubbles.

​​What we do:

​​​Well, as Dave Letterman would say, my next guest needs no introduction, in this case neither does Draper, but in case you haven't come across us:

• ​​Our Seed/Series A fund's crypto portfolio is valued at over $100 billion and includes investments such as:

  • ​​​CoinBase

  • ​​​Telegram

  • ​​​FileCoin

  • ​​​Ledger

  • ​​​Unstoppable Domains

  • ​​​Neo

  • ​​​VeChain

  • ​​​Polygon

  • ​​​Gemini

• ​​​DraperU Alumni have built crypto companies currently valued at $4 billion (and I am not talking peak!), some of these are:

  • ​​​Harmony

  • ​​​HighStreet

  • ​​​Lemon

  • ​​​Qtum

​​​Hopefully that's a good enough TLDR!

​​Why you should come:

​​We're used to putting on the best events in San Francisco, with some of our most recent guests including David Sacks (White House AI & Crypto Czar, All-In), Matt Angle (Paradromics, $100m raised), Kian Sadeghi (Nucleus Genomics, $30m raised), Scott Dietz (2x unicorn CEO), Delian Asparahouv (Founders Fund, Varda Space, $90m raised), and more.

​Now we're bringing that energy to the Big Apple (do people really call it that?) 🍎

​​I promise you'll have a good time (if you get accepted!).

​​Our Partners:

​​Stellar Development Foundation

​​The roadshow is to celebrate our most recent accelerator program in partnership with Stellar Development Foundation. Stellar x Draper Embark program wouldn't possible without SDF.

​​Stellar is a decentralized, public blockchain that gives developers the tools to create experiences that are more like cash than crypto. The network is faster, cheaper, and far more energy-efficient than most blockchain-based systems. It’s designed so Stellar’s ecosystem can make a real-world, lasting impact.
