Calling all the single ladies and single gentlemen of the NYC tech community! (Founders, techies, friends in business, law, finance + adjacent professions are welcome) Tired of swiping left and right and endless conversations and ghosting? Ever feel like dating in NYC requires so much effort and yet yields so little ROI (return on investment)? We are planning on a fun and intimate fireside chat with 2 matchmakers from Tawkify (a premier matchmaking service). They matchmake singles for a living! We will learn more about a day in the life of a matchmaker, what single men and women are looking for, common dating mistakes and struggles, how dating in NYC compares to dating in other cities, how to attract the right kind of person, how to handle rejection, and many more spicy topics 👀 There will be time for mixing, mingling, and commiserating about dating in NYC, over complimentary alcohol and light dinner. Thank you Tawkify and launch house for making this event possible! There are only spots for up to 20 men and 20 women, so sign up ASAP! Momos with >3,500 momos will be guaranteed a spot if you sign up by Jan 30. Fill out your profile as much as possible to help us with curation. Attendance will be taken at the door and only approved RSVPs will be allowed in. Pre-work: In addition to the topics above, we'll be discussing the ins and outs of matchmaking - from setting up profiles to setting up dates. To familiarize yourself with matchmaking before the event, you'll create your FREE Tawkify profile which will take a few minutes ($99 value). No credit card is required. You will then also get the chance to be matched with Tawkify's clients. How does it work? "When we see potential between you and a client, you'll meet with a matchmaker over Zoom so we can learn more about you and your preferences. If it's a match, we'll plan a date to introduce you two."
