NYTech Alliance & youngStartup Ventures

On July 14th we’re speaking with Jon Chang, Head of Growth, US at Klarna, about product marketing. Klarna is an e-commerce payment solutions platform for merchants and shoppers, and raised $460 million at a $5.5 billion valuation last year.

Join us at 10 am as we discuss product marketing. For those new to the term, you may be thinking “What is it?” It’s how developers know what features to add or remove in the next versions of their product. It’s how marketers know how to best position, message, and price their product. It’s how sales teams are enabled to close more deals by better understanding their product and how to sell it.

For early-stage founders, there’s a lot in common (and a lot to learn) from product marketers. With a well-crafted product marketing strategy, early-stage startups can create products that are delightful for their users, drive more conversions, and keep existing customers from churning.

We’ll dive into all this and more on July 14th!

On July 10th we’re speaking with Erica Amatori, Head of Marketing & Community at Corigin Ventures, Founder of Perpetua Project, and Venture Partner at NextGen VP, about growth strategies for direct-to-consumer startups.

Erica started her career as part of the founding team at a software company that went through Dreamit Ventures Accelerator in New York, and has two degrees in Marketing and Psychology from William and Mary.

On July 7th we’re excited to have Jessica Lin, Co-founder and General Partner of Work-Bench, an enterprise technology-focused venture capital firm in New York City. They’ve invested in companies like Catalyst, x.ai, and Spring Health.

Join us at 10 am as we dive into Jessica’s experience investing in enterprise/B2B startups. We’ll discuss best practices in enterprise sales, go-to market, and what she looks for in potential investments.

Jessica is a Co-Founder and General Partner at Work-Bench, where she focuses on investments in future of work and teams.
