Westchester New York

Northeast Hub and Host to Day 4 of the KFMWNE Monthly Roadshow

New York is globally renowned as a vibrant hub for entrepreneurship, characterized by an ecosystem that is rich in opportunities, resources, and a dynamic mix of industries. It is home to a vast network of startups, investors, accelerators, and incubators that foster innovation and support the growth of new ventures. Major industries such as finance, technology, media, fashion,
and healthcare converge in New York, creating a fertile ground for crossindustry collaborations and disruptive innovations.

Westchester County, located just north of New York City, provides a nurturing atmosphere for entrepreneurs. The county boasts a high quality of life, excellent schools, and a strong sense of community, making it an attractive location for both established businesses and startups. With its proximity to NYC, Westchester leverages the dynamism of New York City both professionally and culturally. It serves as host to an investor community that is centered in one of the highest net worth areas of the country.

KFMWNE chose to build its Northeast Hub in Westchester as a means to offer proximity to entrepreneurial and financial resources generated by the abundance of academic institutions, financial powerhouses, science centers and cultural and entertainment juggernauts.

Westchester plays host to Day 4 of the one-week roadshow for a curated cohort of entrepreneurs who seek to present to the organization’s investor community in the area.

Monthly Forums in Westchester are always followed by a cocktail reception.
