New York Tech Week in June brings together an inclusive community of startup, investor, and corporate ecosystem builders.
Join us for a diverse Startup Pitch Competition and Panel of Deep Tech/AI Investors/Executives that trigger meaningful networking and mutual exchange of resources. Reserve your seat at the conversation today!
✅ Connect with startup leaders, impact investors, and corporate executives.
✅ Discover how to enhance sustainable and inclusive practices, and grow your business.
✅ Join a community of ecosystem partners and service providers in Deep Tech/AI.
Reserve your space today.
Who this is for:
- Startups – early visibility and relationships that extend beyond one pitch
- Investors – access to ideas before the market crowds in
- Executives – insight into what’s coming before it hits your roadmap
- Policy/non-profit leaders – exposure to market-driven 'sustainable' impact
- Talent/ecosystem builders – pathways to jobs/partners shaping the future
- Anyone across deep tech, AI, and adjacent industries – a trusted community
And if you simply care about where tech/AI is actually headed - you’ll find your people in the room, where real conversations and connections happen.
We’re building on last year’s momentum, and widening the circle this time.
Let’s keep building what works.
