PROPEL EARTH · NYC · FOUNDERS, INVESTORS, OPERATORS · NEW YORK ·
Happy Summer!
I hope you’ve all been doing wonderful. We have some exciting news at Propel.
We're excited to launch three new ways founders can connect, sell, and grow with Propel.
Our monthly mixer series with the Wayo Club in NYC
Our new private network, which includes three targeted introductions each month to founders, investors, customers, or strategic partners
Our August GTM Cohort for founders who are ready to build a stronger sales process and win more customers
Whether you're looking for your next customer, investor, cofounder, or strategic partner, there's now a clear way to get involved.
To kick things off, join us on Wednesday, July 29 at 6:00 PM at The Wilson for our Innovate in Public Mixer. https://luma.com/innovationinpublicmixer1.0
Register for the mixer and receive complimentary access to our Propel Community Coworking Day at The Wilson on Thursday, July 30 at 10:00 AM. https://luma.com/propelcoworking1.0
Everyone who attends will be matched with a relevant founder, investor, service provider, or strategic connection, making it easy to have conversations that matter.
We hope to see you there!
Innovation in Public Mixer 1.0 is Wednesday, and 10 Early Access seats are left.
Most networking events put hundreds of people in a crowded room and hope the right introductions happen. We built the Innovate in Public Mixer to deliver a better outcome.
When you register, you'll tell us what you're building and who you'd like to meet. Before the event begins, our team reviews every attendee and personally matches you with a founder, investor, operator, or service provider who aligns with your goals. Instead of spending the evening exchanging business cards, you'll arrive knowing there's already a meaningful conversation waiting for you.
At 7:30 PM, guests with dinner tickets will continue those conversations over a prix fixe dinner at The Wilson, seated alongside their curated match. Throughout the evening, Nik Michael, host of the Pivot Point Podcast, (live on Spotify), will be filming founder interviews and highlighting members of the community, while our team continues making introductions as new attendees arrive.
Attendance is intentionally capped to keep the room highly curated and conversations meaningful. Early Access tickets are nearly sold out, and capacity is limited to 50 attendees.
You do not need to be part of the Propel GTM Cohort or the Propel Private Network to attend. If you're building something ambitious and looking for meaningful introductions, we'd love to have you join us.

WHAT THE ROOMS HAVE ACTUALLY DONE
Five thousand four hundred and seventy people have registered and walked through a door across our events. Not a mailing list. People who picked a date and cleared an evening.
Demo Night NYC ran in front of more than thirty five investors, with twelve teams presenting from the cohort.
The NYC Tech Week Pitch Competition drew more than eight hundred registrations, and we took the winner to dinner at the Harvard Club and put them in front of investors.
Two hundred and ninety people have paid for a seat at something we built.
We hope to see you Wednesday at The Wilson. Whether you join us for the mixer, become a founding member of the Private Network, or apply for the August GTM Cohort, we'd love to help you build what's next.
