Working on an early-stage startup? Building something new?
NYC has no shortage of networking events, but founders need more than introductions—we need time, focus, and a strong community of builders pushing each other forward. And we've partnered with General Assembly to make that happen.
This weekly coworking session is for early-stage founders who want to make real progress while being surrounded by others doing the same. No panels, no pitches—just a space to work, exchange ideas, and build alongside like-minded people.
🔹 Focused work time—stay productive while working alongside other founders
🔹 Founder-to-founder conversations—share challenges, trade insights, and support each other
🔹 A space for builders—come and go as needed, no pressure, no distractions
🔹 Structured Session—optionally join in on scheduled standups, accountability activities, and discussion and problem solving sessions
We want to bring the builder-first culture of SF to NYC—where founders don’t just meet, but actively spend time together, collaborate, and push each other forward.

About Cohort – A Community for Builders
Cohort is a new community inspired by SF’s builder-first culture, offering founders a deeper, more meaningful alternative to NYC’s hustle and networking scene
NYC has some of the most ambitious people in the world, but too often, the startup scene feels transactional. The best founder ecosystems emerge when people build together, challenge each other, and create momentum as a group.
As Paul Graham wrote:
“Ambitious people are rare… when you take people like this and put them together with other ambitious people, they bloom like dying plants given water.”
We’re building an environment where founders work side by side, form real relationships, and accelerate each other’s progress.
We’re starting with weekly coworking sessions—a simple but effective way to stay focused while building meaningful connections. Over time, we’ll expand to both social and building focused events designed to foster deeper conversations and shared learning—moving beyond networking to create a true community of builders.
