Yorkseed Paris Ecosystem Mixer: RAISE SUMMIT Edition

​RAISE Summit Edition
📍 Near Carrousel du Louvre | Paris, France (Exact location will reveal on the day before the meetup)

​As the RAISE Summit brings together Europe’s top founders, funders, and family offices — Yorkseed invites you to an intimate ecosystem mixer just steps from the Carrousel du Louvre.

​Join us for an early-evening gathering of curated global builders:
🌍 Founders scaling bold ideas
💼 Investors backing long-term vision
🤝 Ecosystem allies bridging global corridors

​Whether you're a Paris-based innovator or visiting for the summit, come meet the humans behind the headlines — over wine, warm conversation, and what's-next energy.

🌍 The Last Toast — Lisbon Wrap-Up

As Unicorn Summit came to a close, Yorkseed gathered a curated group of founders, funders, and global allies for The Last Toast — an intimate evening designed to celebrate the week’s meaningful moments and lasting connections.

Set in a cozy Lisbon venue, the night brought together Yorkseeders from across the world — including a special collision between our NYC chapter and the growing Lisbon ecosystem. Sparks flew as East Coast energy met Iberian warmth, with New York founders sharing stories, ideas, and ambitions with Lisbon locals and fellow global builders.

This wasn’t just a closing mixer — it was a reflective space to wind down, toast to the ideas and deals that sparked, and plant seeds for what’s next.

From candlelight conversations to spontaneous future collabs, The Last Toast embodied the heart of Yorkseed: bold, global, and deeply human.

Here’s to building an ecosystem that spans cities, cultures, and continents — together. 🥂🌿
