What we’re about

Our Mission and vision
NYFA (New York Founder Assembly) was created to help make NYC the greatest startup city in the World. Being number two is not a NY way to be.

As measured by

  • By 2035: Most venture capital by number of deals and total yearly volume
  • By 2025 Most NYC HQ'd unicorns

NYC will accomplish this by doubling down on its strengths:

  • Proximity and concentration: Foster a strong and supportive entrepreneurship community
  • Culture: Promote and celebrate the grit, hustle, and winner mentality of NYC to establish kinship between like-minded and growth-oriented individuals.

Why NYFA?

  • Small-group curated events
    We profile members and manually curate groups so that you always connect with peers at a similar stage to yours, facing and innovating on similar challenges. Matching is based on your operations complexity, funding stage, and six other factors. ONLY registered members (free) are invited.
  • Open events
    Hosted or promoted by NYFA, these are events where founders of all levels come together to keep an ear to the ground, learn, teach, celebrate, and commiserate.

Thank you for your interest in NYFA and our mission. If you haven't registered yet, it's free! Please visit NYFA.tech to learn more and register as an NYFA Insider. I hope to meet you at a future event!
