The Startup Social at Kendall Square
You know that feeling when you walk into a room and just get it?
Everyone there is building something, thinking about something, or backing something. The conversations are real. The energy is different. You leave with three new contacts and one idea you can't stop thinking about.
That's what we're creating at Epipelagic Ventures.
The Startup Social is a free, weekly gathering for the people who make Kendall Square's startup ecosystem run — founders, investors, mentors, operators, students, and everyone in between. No keynotes. No pitch pressure. No awkward networking. Just good people, good food, and the kind of conversations that actually go somewhere.
This is your room if you're:
Building something early-stage and looking for the right people around you
Still in the idea stage — curious, ambitious, figuring it out
A mentor or operator who loves being around builders
An angel, scout, or VC who knows the best deals start with relationships
A student or researcher who wants to be part of something real
No deck required. No title needed. Just show up.
Food and drinks are on us — come hungry, leave with people you actually want to see again.
Each week is different. Don't wait spots fill up fast.
