Slow Ventures' Etiquette Finishing School

​Following the notable success of last year’s inaugural class (which was oversubscribed and drew attention from leading national press, Slow Ventures is pleased to bring Etiquette Finishing School to New York.

​What began as a modest skit at YC proved something more enduring: that in an age of technological acceleration, the advantage increasingly belongs to those who possess presence. While founders are trained to build pitch decks, hold user interviews, and focus on code, far fewer are instructed in the subtler arts — how to command a room, manage first impressions, and represent their enterprise with composure.

​If last year established the importance of such fluency, this year affirms its necessity. After all, if AGI takes over, all there is left is etiquette.

​Attendance will be deliberately limited. Applications will be reviewed strictly in the order received, and once the room is filled, it shall remain so.
