Victor Hunt – Co-founder and CEO of Astorian.

Astorian is a B2B real estate tech marketplace intended to improve residential and commercial efficiencies. Victor started the company in 2018, right after he graduated from Yale University. Their customers own and manage over 2,000 buildings in New York and they are venture backed by First Round Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Village Global.

Darren Lin – Co-founder of Foodini

Foodini is an app that empowers you to try new foods while giving restaurants an affordable platform to drive traffic. Current apps lack crucial knowledge for users, and Foodini solves this by providing the tools and support along the food journey so that customers feel confident trying a new dish or cuisine.

Darren is currently beta testing the app. “Having gone through the startup journey once (and failed) a year prior, I knew that in order to turn Foodini into a successful venture, I needed the right team to execute it.” Darren was able to bring in three team member who are software engineers and have experience in the restaurant space. You can ask Darren anything from building a consumer app to building a team.

Classes are sponsored by the Small Business Association.

The Queens Economic Development Corporation and Queens Tourism Council will host Queens Taste 2024 at the New York Hall of Science in Flushing Meadows Corona Park on Tuesday, May 21, from 6 pm to 9 pm.

We expect to attract more than 500 attendees with 50 restaurants and beverage purveyors, who will offer samples of their products. Thus, attendees will be able to bounce from table to table, tasting treats from tangy to fiery, crunchy to velvety, and sweet to briny.

Queens Taste is also a celebration of the borough -- and a great way to network. Almost all the anticipated 500 attendees either live in Queens or do business there. Many are executives and captains of industry. The atmosphere is always festive, almost giddy, creating an ideal scene for meeting and greeting.
