A ~650 person community with ~250 on the waitlist
June '24 update: Just launched a managed WhatsApp Community w/ Sub-Groups
We will be letting qualified folks off the waitlist shortly
We meet once a month at a bar, or a company's office. We're always open to new Sponsor Partners if you/your company is interested just email peppernyc1@gmail.com
Say goodbye to endless Slacks. Find Your Tribe with smaller, curated Sub-Groups that are volunteer run and led (e.g., "PMs in BK"). They meetup 1x/quarter at minimum.
Keep up with the community's happenings (including the latest Sub-Groups), find out about other NYC health-tech events and see highlights of other Pepper Members.
(1) Live in NYC,
(2) Work/Invest in healthcare services / Digital Health (no Pharma or Med Device),
(3) Have 4+ years of industry experience
(4) You are NOT in the "services industry" (e.g., bankers, lawyers, consultants)
FYI there is no confirmation email, just hang tight and we'll message you if you fit the criteria :)
Rohan Siddhanti started this because he wanted to jumpstart the NYC healthcare community, specifically meeting up in person again. Like the "old days" when ZocDoc and Flatiron threw Ted Talks and parties.
Breakdown is roughly 36% Founders, 22% Investors and 42% Operators - all folks who live in NYC and have years of healthcare services experience. Roughly 40% Women and 60% Men.
Apply to join as a Member. If you want to sponsor an event, please email peppernyc1@gmail.com. We host monthly events with ~50 people attending per event and usually use your space or a bar.
Yes it's currently free. Summer '24: We're launchign a managed WhatsApp community that will be free until Thanksgiving. If we've built something useful, we'll start charging a couple bucks per month.
