NYTW Wine & Cheese Hour with Investors and Upstate Founders
Join us during NY Tech Week for an intimate Wine & Cheese Hour hosted in partnership with Wells Fargo, bringing together a curated group of investors and high-potential founders visiting from Upstate NY.
This gathering is designed to foster meaningful, low-pressure connections where great conversations happen naturally over a glass of wine. Meet founders building outside traditional tech hubs, connect with investors actively deploying capital, and explore opportunities for partnership, funding, and collaboration.
Expect a highly curated room, thoughtful introductions, and a relaxed atmosphere that prioritizes quality over quantity. Whether you're looking to invest, raise, or expand your network with ambitious operators and aligned capital partners, this is a room worth being in.
Space is limited to maintain the integrity of the experience.
