About us
DTC Builders NYC is a curated community for serious operators in the Shopify and DTC ecosystem. (Also on Luma - https://luma.com/dtcbuildersnyc)
We exist to create a high-signal room in New York for people actually in the trenches.
What to expect:
• Curated events — less panels, more run clubs, golf days, and elevated happy hours
• Tactical conversations and shared learnings (no fluff)
• Meaningful connections that lead to partnerships, hiring, and growth
• A network of operators who value quality over noise
This is not a mass networking group. We review every member to maintain the standard.
No spam. No cold pitching in DMs. Respect the room.

Let’s build something meaningful in NYC.
