Workshop Description:

Crowdfunding should be the first stop on your funding journey. It’s a low-risk, efficient path to getting a startup, small business, nonprofit, or side hustle off the ground without going into debt or giving up equity. In this workshop, led by IFundWomen Startup Coach Alex Brockelman, we’ll talk about the pros & cons of different funding strategies and all the different need-states that crowdfunding can be successful for.

Highlights/take-aways:

  1. What is crowdfunding?
  2. Why crowdfunding is helpful
  3. The IFundWomen Method for executing a successful crowdfunding campaign

About the Speaker:

Alex is a former founder with experience in both for-profits and non-profits. His entrepreneurial focus has been creating organizations that partner sound business models with compelling social impact – particularly with regard to food justice and access. As a Startup Coach at IFundWomen, he spends his days working with entrepreneurs to meet their long-term goals through business planning, marketing, and crowdfunding strategy. It’s time to close the funding gap for women entrepreneurs!

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.
