For Anyone Who’s Ever Said, “What if we built this?” | Join Starup+ on August 7 in NYC
You had the thought. Now meet the people. The ones who say “yes” before it’s perfect. Join us and make it real.
Hey there,
You know that moment when a wild idea pops into your head?
Maybe you’re in the subway, scrolling through memes, or just staring off into space, and suddenly you think,
“What if we built this?”
Maybe it’s a new app, a gadget, or that crazy AI-powered coffee maker you’ve been dreaming about.
You get excited… then reality hits: “Wait, how do I even start?”
Don’t worry. You’re not alone. RSVP now to meet like-minded people.
Why Do Ideas Stay in Our Heads?
Ideas are great, but sometimes they’re shy.
They don’t always come with a step-by-step manual or a magic button to “launch startup.”
Most of us keep them tucked away because it feels scary to share. Or maybe we think,
“I’m not ready. Maybe next week. Maybe next year.”
But here’s the truth — waiting doesn’t build startups. People do.
And sometimes all it takes is a room full of people who get it.
Join us on Aug 7, (Thursday) - Sour Mouse, NYC
RSVP now before its gone like the last event…
Introducing Startup+: The Anti-Boring Startup Night
Forget panels where everyone pretends to be deep.
Forget awkward elevator pitches that make you sweat.
Forget networking where you spend more time collecting business cards than making connections.
Startup+ is the opposite.
We get together with founders, dreamers, investors, and anyone who’s ever said, “What if we built this?”
We talk, laugh, share war stories, and maybe sketch out the next big thing — sometimes on a napkin, sometimes on a cocktail napkin (same difference).
Who Will You Meet?
Founders who’ve launched products and those still launching ideas from their couch.
Investors who care more about your passion than your pitch deck.
Builders, makers, coders, and people who once Googled “How to be a founder” (no shame).
That one person who’s secretly working on an AI that tells bad jokes (like this one: Why do programmers prefer dark mode? Because light attracts bugs!).
What’s the Plan?
When? Thursday, August 7, 5:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Where? Sour Mouse, NYC (great drinks, better people) - Maps
Why? Because you’re tired of waiting for the “perfect moment.” Spoiler alert: it doesn’t exist.
What You’ll Actually Experience
Real conversations — no scripts, no pressure, just people talking about what they’re building (or want to build).
A vibe that’s part brainstorming session, part happy hour, and all about connection.
The chance to meet someone who might become your co-founder, investor, or at least a friend who understands why you check your code at 3 AM.
A few laughs, a few “aha” moments, and maybe a new perspective on your idea.
Why Show Up?
Because your idea is worth sharing.
Because your story is worth hearing.
Because the next big thing might start with a simple “hey”, or a joke about bugs.
Plus, where else can you hang out with founders and investors without feeling like you’re at a job interview?
Don’t Wait Save Your Spot
We’re capping attendance to keep the night cozy and conversations flowing.
This event fills up fast, and once it’s full, it’s full.
Still Not Sure?
Think of Startup+ as a place where “tech talk” feels more like chatting with friends than a TED Talk.
No suits, no buzzwords, just people who love building and want to do it together.
We can’t wait to see what you’re working on and maybe help you take that first step from “what if” to “what’s next.”
Cheers,
Aneesh Lal, Founder
