NeuroNYC Fireside + Mixer: Orrin Devinsky | May 12th
Join us for an exciting evening of conversation and connection at NeuroNYC Happy Hour! This in-person mixer brings together innovators, researchers, investors, and enthusiasts at the intersection of neuroscience and technology.
We're thrilled to feature a fireside chat with Dr. Orrin Devinsky, a renowned neurologist and Managing Partner at PhiFund Ventures. Dr. Devinsky directs the NYU Comprehensive Epilepsy Center and has led groundbreaking research behind the FDA approval of over ten antiseizure therapies, including the first cannabis-based medication. At PhiFund Ventures, he is actively investing in leading neurotech companies such as Blackrock Neurotech.
Event Agenda:
6:00 - 6:30 PM: Check-in & Networking
6:30 - 7:00 PM: Fireside Chat with Dr. Orrin Devinsky
7:00 PM onward: Open Networking
Whether you're building, investing in, or researching neurotech, this is the place to meet like-minded peers, exchange ideas, and grow your network. Past attendees include professionals from OpenBCI, Synchron, Sharper Sense, Mount Sinai, and more.
The event will take place near Greenpoint. Secure your ticket to receive the exact location details.
NeuroNYC, the group behind the happy hours, is a collaboration of neurotech enthusiasts from many of the exciting neurotech companies now headquartered in NYC including OpenBCI, Synchron, Meta, Sharper Sense, NeuraLenz, and Invictus BCI. We are all excited by the growth of neurotech in NYC but felt there was a lack of events promoting communication between the different neurotech companies, labs, and investors. We are hoping this happy hour series will help fill that void. Moreover, we're looking for more members to join and more companies/labs/investors who are excited to host future happy hours in the series!
