📍What’s happening next in Yorkseed New York City? →

Join introstars and Yorkseed this Thursday for an unforgettable evening bringing together startup founders, investors, and super connectors in the heart of NYC.

The Key to a $1.3 Trillion Opportunity

A new trend in real estate is making the most expensive properties obtainable. It’s called co-ownership, and it’s revolutionizing the $1.3T vacation home market.

The company leading the trend? Pacaso. Created by the founder behind a $120M prior exit, Pacaso turns underutilized luxury properties into fully-managed assets and makes them accessible to the broadest possible market.

The result? More than $1B in transactions and service fees, 2,000+ happy homeowners, and over $110m in gross profit to date for Pacaso.

With rapid international growth and 41% gross profit growth last year alone, Pacaso is hitting their stride. They even recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

The same VCs that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo also backed Pacaso. Join them as a Pacaso shareholder before the opportunity ends September 18.

Invest While You Still Can

📍What’s happening next in Yorkseed London? →

Join Yorkseed London this Tuesday for Summer Rewind, an end of summer evening bringing together founders, investors, and ecosystem partners for open networking, lively conversations, and new opportunities. From fresh ideas to deal flow, this is where genuine connections turn into collaborations over drinks in the heart of London.

💫 What is the Yorkseed Passport Series?

A curated global lineup of founder-and-investor-driven gatherings hosted alongside major innovation moments—from NYC to Sydney to Paris. Every stop is built on authentic connection, trusted relationships, and high-signal community energy.

Sponsoring a Yorkseed event isn’t just about logo placement—it’s a gateway to curated relationships, international exposure, and deep venture ecosystem access.

I am planning for New York Climate Week in September and Web Summit Lisbon in November. interested to be a part of it?

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!
