Propel Earth Mixer · Founders, Investors & Operators
It all starts here.
The Propel Earth Mixer is our new monthly gathering built to connect the NYC community with intention. One night a month, we bring founders, investors, operators, and the people building what's next into one room, designed for real conversations and the kind of connections that actually move your work forward. This is where the network meets in person: come to meet your next investor, co-founder, hire, customer, or collaborator, and leave with relationships that last well beyond the night.
What is Propel Earth
Propel Earth is a 36,000 member community solving global challenges together. We connect founders, investors, nonprofits, operators, and changemakers building sustainable solutions to the problems that matter, and we turn those connections into real outcomes.
We curate founders, investors, operators, and service providers into intentional rooms built for experiences people remember and relationships that last. A direct line to the most ambitious builders, in a community that actually shows up. Learn more at https://propel.earth
