🛰️ 🕯️ A New Space & Tons of Events: NYC Events Recap by Verci

Edition XIV: January 15th - January 21st

Welcome back to the Verci Newsletter!!

On this newsletter, we’re encompassing and highlighting tech, creative, and culture-focused events, as well as the latest updates. A quick update:

We’re Launching a New (Additional) Location called 🛰️ SATELLITE.

Verci is a collective of founders and creatives operating out of the 5th floor of 394 Broadway. Founders backed by a16z, Sequoia, Lightspeed, Neo and YC are part of our community.

Recently, a space in a building 2 blocks away opened up. We signed the lease and decided to turn that space into a one-of-a-kind office/workspace.

The Concept:
1. Bring together the most high-agency founders and teams.
2. Build a sanctuary for work and ultra-high productivity.
3. Offer a creative & social environment 2 blocks away (our current space).

The Space:
1. 5.2k sq ft of sun-filled private desks, private offices, & flexible work-space.
2. The office features private meeting rooms, call booths, large windows, & a kitchenette.
3. It’s 24/7 access with less than one block away from every train imaginable.

What you get:
1. A place with anything that makes sure all you need to focus on is work.
2. A range of curated programming with top-tier accelerators, VCs, and builder communities.
3. Access to our regular membership space, events, and community.

SATELLITE extends our vision of a campus that serves as the epicenter of culture and innovation in NYC.
