🎉 Happy New Year 2026 from Startup+ 🎉
More than events, it was a year of people. Founders, builders, and ideas coming together in the same room.
As we step into 2026, we just want to pause for a moment and say thank you.
2025 was one wild, beautiful roller coaster.
We hosted 12 events, brought together 2000+ founders, builders, investors, and operators, and turned simple meetups into real conversations, real collaborations, and real friendships.
Some nights were loud.
Some were quiet and deeply meaningful.
Some started with “So, what are you building?” and ended with new partnerships, job offers, co-founder talks, or just a fresh sense of motivation.
What made this year special wasn’t the venues, the RSVPs, or the numbers.
It was the people. (YOU!) 💖
People who showed up after long workdays.
People who shared honest stories, wins, failures, pivots, and doubts.
People who came in as strangers and left feeling like part of a community.
Startup+ has always been about one simple idea:
👉 Put good builders in the same room, and let magic happen.
And in 2025, it truly did.
As we enter 2026, we’re excited, grateful, and more committed than ever to:
Creating spaces that feel welcoming, not transactional
Encouraging real conversations over polished pitches
Helping founders, operators, and investors connect like humans first
If you attended even one Startup+ event this year — you helped shape this community.
If you cheered us on from afar — we felt that support too.
Here’s to more ideas, more courage, more collaboration, and many more rooms filled with builders in 2026 🚀
Happy New Year,
Team Startup+
✨ The best connections are still ahead.
