The Future of AI Communication Starts Here

Every day great ideas fade because turning complex thinking into clear communication takes time most people do not have.

Pressmaster.ai changes that. It captures how you think, amplifies it into powerful communication, and shares it in your authentic voice.

This is not about writing faster. It is about thinking louder.

Join us on October 15 at 12 PM ET or 6 PM CET for The Worlds First AI Built for Cognitive Amplification.

Discover how one short conversation becomes thirty days of strategic and market ready content.

Be part of the launch of a new category where AI becomes part of your cognitive architecture.

Join us for an off-the-record virtual tactical roundtable for accredited investors shaping the future of HealthTech.

Are you actively raising capital and ready to sharpen your pitch? Join Yorkseed for an exclusive, hands-on pitch training session designed for founders preparing to raise!

👉 Week of October 20th: Hosted in New York City (venue to be announced), this private gathering is designed for meaningful introductions and high-caliber exchange — where deals begin with dialogue and collaborations happen naturally.

👉 Week of October 26th: “Scaling Globally: Cross-Border” event in planning, with the announcement of our new Yorkseed Delegation.

🤝 Yorkseed was delighted to support the Speed Pitching 1:1 Meetings With Investors event during AI Week NYC, hosted by The Startup Station, Pulse NYC, and Victoria Yampolsky.

The evening brought together more than 50 founders, including many women entrepreneurs, for direct conversations with investors that led to genuine opportunities and lasting connections. Several founders left with immediate interest and follow-up meetings lined up.

We always love seeing the Yorkseed logo on the step and repeat at events that bring founders and investors together, and we’re proud to support a community that celebrates innovation, connection, and collaboration.

Our WhatsApp Global hubs are where I will be strictly sharing special events that are happening around the local city related to Founders + Investors + Tech Executives focus only.

Our WhatsApp Conference Groups are for conferences goers to share invites, arrange meetups and set meetings specifically for Founders + Investors + Tech Executives focus only. We also provide a spreadsheet of non-badge holder master side event list for all conference goers!

Looking for volunteers to run some of these hubs.

Some people already interested in some of them, though I do need more! If you are from a city that is not on the list and are interested in creating a local hub, please reach out to me!

What does a local hub volunteer / co-organizer do?

• Run a Yorkseed^TM event once a month. It must be Founders + Investors + Tech Executives focus. I am open to all sort of events from happy hours to panels, or even demo nights. To make it easier, it can be a co-branded event with another company.

• Collect mailing list, Yorkseed^TM database building from all the attendees. Partnership, investor or collaboration opportunities for YS.

• Feed me any local events you know will be coming up in the local city, and I will include them the newsletter.

The perks of being a local hub volunteer? You are exposed to high-level individuals, and infinite opportunities will come your way!
