This Isn’t Just Networking -- It’s Local NYC Community 🤝 | Tech Community
We genuinely appreciate every single person who has shown up, supported, volunteered, collaborated, or simply invited a friend.
When we started Startup+ back in 2021, the goal was simple: Create a space where ambitious people could actually meet each other in real life.
Not just collect LinkedIn connections.
Not just attend another “business event.”
But genuinely build relationships, opportunities, friendships, startups, careers, and communities.
And somehow… it grew into something much bigger than we ever imagined. 🚀
25,000+ NYC Tech Community Members ❤️
Today, Startup+ has grown into one of NYC’s largest tech communities.
Over the past few years:
We’ve hosted events across New York City 🗽
Helped founders meet investors 💰
Connected startups with talent 👩💻
Helped creators, freelancers, developers, designers, and operators find their people
Created thousands of real-world connections that started from a simple conversation
And the best part?
People keep coming back because the vibe feels real.
No corporate energy.
No fake networking.
No awkward rooms.
Just ambitious people helping each other grow.

In a world full of endless scrolling and online noise… real human conversations matter more than ever.
