**Welcome to Startup Oasis! #NYCTechWeek** If you are a startup founder, investor, developer, marketer, entrepreneur, or anyone else in the tech ecosystem looking to start, join, or help a tech startup, this event is for you! Startup founders pitch their business to the audience, then they will join their own breakout group to get feedback from the attendees (similar to a hackathon). The official registration page is [here](https://luma.com/t10oqi8b). Schedule: * 6:00 PM - Doors open for networking * 7:00 - Founders pitch * 7:30 onward - founders break off into break-out groups and attendees can move around and help one for the remainder of the time, similar to a hackathon. Startup Oasis was created to pierce the illusion of accessibility of startups and tech by creating a grassroots forum for early-stage founders to pitch to those in the tech ecosystem to get real-time feedback for their idea or business. Use this [link](https://lnk.bio/startup.oasis) to: * Follow us on LinkedIn * Join our community * Donate to our cause * Visit our website * Sign up for our events newsletter **FAQ:** **Is this event free to attend?** Yes - Startup Oasis will always be free for anyone to attend. If you would like to donate, you can buy a VIP ticket here and it will be appreciated! You can also talk to us about volunteer opportunities. **Am I eligible to pitch?** You must be the founder or on the leadership team of a technology-based startup to be eligible to pitch. You can be early stage (pre-funding, pre-revenue, or pre-MVP) up to series A. Consultants, firms, and agencies cannot pitch their services - please join a breakout to speak with the founders. **What happens after the pitches?** The breakout groups form for the remainder of the event. Each founder gets a breakout room and you can talk with them more there about their business and needs. **Can I take photos or videos?** Yes, please be respectful when doing so. You can tag Startup Oasis on LinkedIn. If you have a video or YouTube show, you are welcome to interview founders and attendees.
