This Week in NYC (Jan 16 2024) - Founders & Funders Mixer feat. Youngest-ever Partner at Google Ventures, Winter hike at Mount Ivy, Supermomos Supper Club, & more!

January 17, 2024

Hey homies,

Today is the coldest day in NYC this season – stay safe and cozy! ☃️ Last week’s Lunar New Year Sichuan Dinner sold out within 48 hours. We still have a few more spots for our FAANG++ Dinner Party feat. Supermomos Sorting Hat (will probably also sell out within the next week) - get your tickets now if you haven’t yet :)

Before we get to events, wanted to share about amazing fellow female founder Jean Smart’s ⭐ Penelope Plan ⭐, for micro/small businesses, nonprofits and entrepreneurs who might want to offer employees 401(k) plans! We have a special offer just for the Supermomos Community here! (only $8 per employee)

Also, do you work at a startup in NYC? Check out our new reel on #startuplife here and connect with us on Instagram 👀 No reimbursements for $10 matcha lattes. Inflation is high and life is tough 😏

The FAANG++ Dinner Party presents an exclusive evening of authentic conversations over dinner, followed by more free-flow mingling by the bar. Set in an elegant venue, the event features tables of 8-10, carefully curated to foster meaningful connections.

The evening kicks off with a sumptuous one-hour dinner. Tables and seating arrangements will be pre-assigned by our Supermomos AI Sorting Hat algorithm, based on your responses to our fun set of questions that you will answer after you are approved. This intimate setting provides the perfect backdrop for in-depth conversations and the forging of new relationships.

As dinner concludes, the event transitions into cross-table mingling by the bar. Here, guests are encouraged to mingle and interact across the floor, and meet other FAANGs++ who might not have been at your dinner table!

The ticket price of $62 includes the cost of the venue, dinner, and a glass of wine, including tax & gratuity, so you will not have to handle payment at the event, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience. There will be a cash bar open all night for those who might want more drinks.

The FAANG++ Dinner Party is more than just a meal - it's an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals in a special, curated setting meant to foster connections and good fun!

You will receive an invite to the payment link and Sorting Hat Questionnaire only after you have been approved.

Experience an exclusive networking opportunity at the Cornell Tech + Cornell Alumni Happy Hour & Mixer, co-hosted with Cornell Tech, set in a trendy bar in New York City. This event offers Cornellians a unique chance to connect, share experiences, and forge new professional relationships. Verified schools only: You will need a Cornell e-mail address to join!
