Founders & Falsettos | A New Year NYC Karaoke Jam
Join Flybridge, Next Wave NYC, Work-Bench, The Venture Collective, Mercury, and Ramp for a New Year Karaoke Party!
We're inviting founders across our portfolios to kick off 2026 while hitting some high notes—or cheering from the crowd.
Food, drinks, and a well-curated room are on us.
Your job? Pick a good song and bring one person you think we should know in 2026—a founder, operator, or builder doing something interesting. This is how we grow the room.
Registration requires your plus-one's name and email so we can welcome them properly.
