Yorkseed connects founders, investors, and institutional partners through curated relationships, high-signal rooms, and intelligent venture infrastructure — across 50+ cities worldwide.
"Too many serious founders and investors are held back
not by their ability — but by their access.
We built Yorkseed to fix that."
Most platforms are built around a feature. Yorkseed is built around a world.
Since 2023 we have been cultivating a trusted global ecosystem — the relationships, the rooms, the conference activations, and the ecosystem density that serious founders and investors actually need.
Yorkseed Connect, our platform, sits underneath that network. It powers the relationships, the deal flow, and the intelligence tools. But the ecosystem comes first.

Joining Yorkseed during CES 2025 turned out to be one of the best decisions I made that week. Yorkseed immediately provided structure, context, and most importantly, the right people. Yorkseed is not just a network. It is a trusted ecosystem.
Becoming one of the first members in August 2023 changed the trajectory of my company and my growth as a leader, unlocking opportunities that would not have been possible without this community.
I knew 0 people when I came to Paris. Through Yorkseed I made family. Not to mention the tools that would probably take ages of googling and trusting to be done in seconds.
Yorkseed has been incredibly welcoming and supportive as we stepped into the French startup ecosystem. Visiting Station F and attending partner events led to meaningful conversations and honest product feedback.
