NYC Meet Up #18: Activate 2026

​New year. New energy. Same NYC Shakers magic.

​If 2025 was the year we built momentum, then 2026 is the year we bring the community to life in the most human way possible.

​On Jan 29th, we’re back at FIGMA for our NYC L&D Shakers Kickoff, and this one isn’t just a “welcome back” moment… it’s a let’s-build-this-together moment.

​The vibe for 2026

​This year, we want to create more real value for community members and the best way to do that is simple:

​YOU bring the energy.
YOU bring the passion.
YOU bring the messy questions + the work you’re proud of.

​Because the magic isn’t in the agenda… it’s in the people in the room.

​What to expect

• ​Good convos with good humans (the NYC way)

• ​Fresh connections + familiar faces

• ​A quick look at what we’re cooking up for 2026

• ​Space for you to share what you’re building, exploring, or wrestling with

• ​A little bit of “LEGO brain” energy (not a full build… but you know I can’t help myself 😄)

​If you’ve been around for a while - welcome home.
If this is your first Shakers event - you’re in the right place.

​RSVP to lock your spot (and please grab a ticket only if you know you can make it; we keep it intentional).

​📅 When: Thursday, January 29, 2026
📍 Where: FIGMA, NYC
⏰ Time: 6 PM onwards

​Can’t wait to kick off 2026 with you and set the tone for a year that feels more connected, more useful, and a lot more us. 🙌
