Builders Without Borders: Founders & Vino #NYCTechWeek

During the noise of NYC Tech Week, we’re opening up a space to slow down.
Club Calima, LaFamilia Foundation and Amigas In Tech are bringing together a curated group of LATAM founders, creatives, investors, and friends of the community to come together outside of work to talk culture, art, and everything in between.
What to expect:
Relaxed atmosphere
Light structure to facilitate introductions
Guided wine tasting with the host
Who should come:
Founders building in the U.S. with global roots
Investors interested in emerging and cross-border markets
Operators supporting high-growth teams
Where we are hosting:
Saint James Libations in Bushwick, Brooklyn, is a queer, Black woman-owned wine bar and cultural salon that serves as a dedicated, intimate sanctuary for creatives. Located in a 2,000sq ft space, it specializes in micro-produced wines, small bites, art, and curated experiences.
We encourage guests to support the bar, as proceeds go back to support the NYC Chapter at LaFamilia Foundation .
