Hey LEVELUP in NYC Family,

We’re switching things up a little! While we’ve built our name on curating the city’s best networking, professional development, and career events, we know powerful connections can happen at all types of events. So moving forward, we’ll be sharing a broader mix of events—think festivals, comedy shows, concerts, parties, and more. (This means that the number of events we share will likely double or triple over time!) Networking, career growth, and wealth-building remain at our core, but we know you can level up in every space—whether that’s a tech conference or a really good party. Let us know what you think about this in this short poll. We are always open to feedback.

We’re here to keep you tapped into the best events to level up in life, love, and career. Scroll down for some can’t-miss events happening across NYC this week—and don’t forget to forward this to a friend who’s leveling up with you. Thanks for being part of the movement.

Let’s LEVELUP Together,

-Ryan
