2) Investors who has healthcare focus, or at least one part of their investment portfolio.

Exciting news! Yorkseed is partnering with the Hong Kong Trade and Economic Office in Europe to showcase select companies from our ecosystem at the Asia Global Health Summit in Hong Kong (May 16-17). Details to come, including introductions and meetings to investor and accelerator networks, meetings, press opportunities, and visits to healthcare facilities. Stay tuned for updates on this selection process. Investors are also welcome to participate in the program.

Healthcare companies must undergo an approval process before receiving their own booth at the exhibition to showcase their offerings. Health Tech Companies will be responsible for covering their own accommodation and airfare. This presents an excellent opportunity to gain global exposure, and the Hong Kong Trade and Economic Council will assist with investor introductions and -to-1 matchmaking meetings connecting sources of funds with projects in the healthcare and medical sectors. Please fill out the interest form if you are interested!

If anyone would like to collaborate / sponsor with Yorkseed, please reach out to me via email!  [email protected]  

Access to our local hubs is restricted to founders, investors, executives, or individuals actively involved in the local tech innovation sector or frequently visiting the local city for work.

If you have gotten value out of Yorkseed Newsletter, please help us grow by sharing it with relevant friends and colleagues!

Message from the Yorkseed House ...

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! We believe everyone should have access to all the top notch side events without paying a premium price!

Looking for volunteers to run some of these hubs. Global Hub, Paris, New York City, Austin, Miami, D.C., Los Angeles, Bay Area, Hong Kong, Lisbon, Sydney, Munich, Berlin, Helsinki, London, Rio, Buenos Aires, Toronto, Montreal. 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!

Sounds exciting for you? Write me at  [email protected] / Jessica Sophia Wong
