New York Startup Networking: Real Problems, Real Answers, After Work

New York Startup Networking: Real Problems, Real Answers, After Work

Wed, Sep 9, 10:00 PM
From Startup Networking & Founder Ecosystem | New York
4.2

Join founders, investors and tech talent at this curated **startup networking event in New York.** Meet ambitious builders, exchange ideas and discover new opportunities in a dynamic community environment. **RSVP: [Use this link](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/new-york-startup-networking-real-problems-real-answers-after-work-tickets-1997946239987?aff=oddtdtcreator)** **Please note that RSVP is managed via Eventbrite to control attendee lists — don’t ignore it to avoid issues with on-site payment.** You don't need permission to enter the startup world. You need one working session. The way into a founding team isn't an application — it's being visibly useful to someone who's stuck. This evening is built exactly for that: founders bring the problems they can't crack, and the room works on them together, five people at a time. **🎯 WHAT YOU GET OUT OF IT** Pricing, first hires, distribution, retention, churn — the things you've already solved at your job are exactly what's on the board tonight. Being the person who unlocks that conversation is how operators end up as co-founders, advisors and first hires. And you bring your own problem too: everyone here is both client and consultant. Yours can be "should I leave my job for a startup" — that's a real problem and the room has opinions worth hearing. **⚙️ HOW THE EVENING RUNS** Everyone submits one problem before the event, so the board is full when you arrive. The room votes, tables form — five people, one problem at a time. Two minutes to explain it, three minutes of questions only, eight minutes while the table works on it out loud and the author takes notes without defending. Halfway through, a second vote: the problems that didn't make the first round get their turn. **⏰ BUILT AROUND A WORKDAY** Doors at 7, structured part done by 9:10, bar open after. Home when you want. **🎤 NOBODY LEAVES WITH NOTHING** Near the end the host asks who still has no answer, and the room finds them a contact — by name, out loud. **🤝 MUTUAL MATCHES ONLY** You mark who you'd work with, we connect when it's mutual, within 48 hours. No cold lists, no awkward follow-ups. **📋 ONE THING IS REQUIRED BEFORE YOU COME** After booking you'll get a three-minute form in our [Mini App:](https://ascentvalley.com/community "https://ascentvalley.com/community") your problem in one line, some context, how long it's been unresolved. Only submitted problems make the board. **👥 WHO'S IN THE ROOM** Product, engineering, GTM and sales operators · solo founders looking for a commercial or product partner · builders exploring their next move · founders with teams who came to solve something specific. Hosted by **Andrew Krylow.** He greets every guest at the door, seats you at the right table, and makes the introductions. WHAT'S GUARANTEED: a curated room, two working sessions, mutual matches within 48 hours. WHAT WE DON'T PROMISE: a room full of investors. Some evenings have angels and scouts, some don't — better you know before you buy. Three rules said out loud: what's said here stays here · we share experience, not advice · switching tables mid-session is normal. Registration required. Contacts saved through the Ascent Valley Mini App inside Telegram — no new account. Ascent Valley — a founder and investor ecosystem across 20+ cities.

Meet people here, then join the dinners, walks, drinks, coffee runs, and other hangouts they create afterward. Or start your own and invite everyone along. 💛 Bunch is completely free. We’re a grassroots social app growing across NYC, Jersey City, and Hoboken with one mission: make it easier for people to actually spend time together, without putting human connection behind a price tag. We're the nicest (and chillest) group of people you'll ever meet ☺️ Our motto is simple: **every person welcomes every other person.** 🍸 **Social Thursdays** 🥂✨ Work is over. Time to unwind. 🌆🍻 **Once a month on Thursday**, we’re getting together after work. The location may change from month to month, but the idea stays the same: friendly people, good conversation, drinks, and an easy way to meet people after work. 💛 We want this to become something you can look forward to every month. 📅✨ 👋 Come solo or bring a friend or coworker. Most people come on their own, which makes it easy to meet everyone. 🕠 **5:30 PM:** Grab a drink and start chatting. 🍺🍷🍸 🍽️ **6:00 PM:** Stay for dinner, another round, or just keep hanging out. 🥂 We’ll help people mix and meet so you’re not left wondering who to talk to. The whole point is to make walking into a room of new people feel easy. 👋💬 🚫 No networking pitches. 🚫 No awkward icebreakers. 🚫 No standing around wondering who you're supposed to talk to. ✅ Good drinks. ✅ Good people. ✅ Plenty of conversation and laughs. ✅ Something social to look forward to every month. 🎟️ **Entry is free!** Just pay for whatever you order. 📲 **RSVP on Bunch so we have an accurate count:** [https://www.letsbunch.com/social-thursdays](https://www.letsbunch.com/social-thursdays) *(25 RSVP minimum on Bunch. Depending on the number of RSVPs, we'll either have that month's Social Thursday or postpone until the following month.)* 💛 **What’s Bunch?** Bunch is built around a simple idea: **anyone should be able to get people together.** Any member can create a hangout around almost anything: coffee, brunch, a walk, drinks, dinner, trivia, pickleball, or whatever else you feel like doing. Other members join, you meet in real life, and the community grows from there. No professional hosts. No endless programming calendar. Just people inviting other people to do things. 💛 **Start Bunching:** [https://www.letsbunch.com](https://www.letsbunch.com/) See you Thursday! 🥂✨ Aleksandra Founder of Bunch 💛
