A Look at PowerToFly’s Final Event of 2018
For us here at PowerToFly, 2019 is in full swing! We already have a slew of live and web events lined up for January not to mention our VIP Program (where VIPs can enjoy weekly virtual lunch & learns with women leaders) and new offerings such as career coaching.
But before we jump too much into the new year, I wanted to take a quick look back at our final event of 2018, an evening of "cocktails and conversations" featuring some of New York's fastest-growing startups.
<p>Hosted at <strong>Rise New York </strong>on Monday, December 17th, the evening included presentations by women leaders at <a href="https://powertofly.com/companies/better-mortgage?utm_source=Salesloft&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=BetterMortgage&utm_content=SharedRiseDec2018" target="_blank"><u>Better Mortgage</u></a>, a company using technology to change the way people finance their homes; <a href="https://powertofly.com/companies/blockstack?utm_source=Salesloft&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Blockstack&utm_content=SharedRiseDec2018" target="_blank"><u>Blockstack</u></a>, a new world of apps that let you own your data and maintain your privacy, security and freedom; <a href="https://powertofly.com/companies/chainalysis?utm_source=Salesloft&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Chainalysis&utm_content=SharedRiseDec2018" target="_blank"><u>Chainalysis</u></a>, their cryptocurrency investigation software helps law enforcement and financial institutions identify and stop bad actors who are using cryptocurrencies for illicit activity such as fraud, extortion, and money laundering; and <a href="https://powertofly.com/companies/rapidsos?utm_source=Salesloft&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=SharedRise&utm_content=SharedRiseDec2018" target="_blank"><u>RapidSOS</u></a>, whose innovations are modernizing the 9-1-1 system, making it possible for first responders to get to you quicker than ever before.</p><p>Our attendees had a chance to network with each of our featured companies over wine and small bites at the start and the end of the evening. In between, our women tech leaders dove a bit deeper into their own career journeys, the history of their companies, the tech that they use and what they are looking for in potential team members. </p><p>PowerToFly is incredibly grateful to Rise New York for hosting us on what was truly an excellent end to 2018.
