Dozens of Founders and Investors Connect: Highlights from Our Founders and Investors Breakfast
Last Friday, we hosted our first 2024 Founders and Investors Breakfast Celebration, the usual Buffalo-based kick off event for our third year of convening these ecosystem pioneers across Upstate NY. The event marked by the energy and enthusiasm of over 80 attendees, including representatives from more than 20 Launch NY portfolio and mentorship companies and investors in Launch NY’s Limited Partners Funds and/or Investor Network.
We were thrilled to see so many entrepreneurs and investors come together to share insights between and among attendees, while fostering new relationships, investments, and connection to resources that help the businesses grow. We will be hosting at least two more Founders and Investors Breakfast events this Fall, including one at the New York Innovation Summit on October 29th at the Syracuse Oncenter so please save the date as all Summit attendees we will be welcome to the breakfast.
