We’re excited to attend the Grace Hopper Celebration this year — the world’s largest gathering of women technologists.
Oct 2, 6pm-9pm: Happy Hour
We’re hosting a happy hour with AWS and YC alum Elpha (a community where women in tech can talk candidly online). Register here.
Oct 3: Office Hours
If you’re interested in starting a startup or want feedback on a project you’re building, we’d love to meet you. You’ll meet me, YC Visiting Partner (and Abie Award winner) Holly Liu, and Elpha founder Cadran Cowansage for a personal chat — and you’re welcome to bring a friend or cofounder with you. Sign up here.
