Private Founders Dinner: NYC

An intimate, invite-only dinner bringing together founders from UVC’s NY Tech Week Roadshow and a curated group of Upstate NY expats now building and investing in New York City.

This evening is designed to spark meaningful connections between those scaling companies today and those who have walked the path before creating space for candid conversation, shared perspective, and new opportunities to collaborate across regions. Expect a thoughtful mix of experienced founders, operators, and investors with ties to Upstate New York, all aligned around strengthening the broader ecosystem and supporting the next generation of growth.
